Fans perusing tickets for the currently unnamed Utah NHL expansion team's inaugural 2025 season weren't necessarily impressed with what they found, as many seats will be obstructed when the team takes the ice at Salt Lake City's Delta Center.
Owner of the new NHL team Ryan Smith on Tuesday released "full season ticket pricing" online.
"Partial ice view," tweeted one hockey fan. "Why would anyone ever buy those?"
"Going to be a terrible atmosphere with all those club seats in the lower bowl," tweeted another. "Yeesh."
The Utah team will share space at the Delta Center with the Utah Jazz.
According to The Hockey News, the lower bowl at the Delta Center will be almost entirely made up of premium club seats, leaving average fans competing for seats the run around $290.
Hockey News reports that 34,000 people hav already placed deposits for season tickets, which is technically more than the 20,000-seat Delta Center can hold.
