The problem is that the renovations are going to drastically reduce


capacity. We already lost a few hundred seats with the new seats. When we change the rest over, we'll lost another few hundred. But if we add any luxury suites, we may end up having capacity fall under 8K.

Either way, the status quo for Cassell isn't viable long term. But between an extensive renovation and a new arena, we're likely going to be better off with a new arena all together. Either option is going to cost tens of millions. In fact, given the architectural challenges Cassell poses, renovation might not be particularly viable.
