Early returns on the first hockey game at Barclays Center seem positive. The Islanders, who are moving to Brooklyn in 2015, played the New Jersey Devils at their future home on Saturday night. There had been concerns about the basketball-designed arena's unorthodox hockey setup, which features about 15,000 seats, some obstructed views on one end, and a video board centered over one of the blue lines. http://www.sportingnews.com/nhl/story/2013-09-21/barclays-center-hockey-islanders-brooklyn-move

wasn't a big deal as a person who attended. it is weird that one end is essentially open with limited seating on that end.lots of lost revenue. it's a cool stadium for concerts.
