The Krak House has pretty nice digs.

Such a terrible name.

The Wings locker room is just about perfect. Looks great...warm modern but retro feel. Nice lighting with winged wheel on ceiling instead of the floor. Large stalls, plenty of storage, and small sidewalls for a bit of privacy and separation with extra hooks. The right amount of connective-ness for teammates to face and engage each other. The semicircular ones just don’t have that.

That Detroit room is sweet imo. Classy AF.

Obviously the newer the building the more space they give to the home team dressing room annex.

I'd like to see pics of the different amenities different teams have attached to their dressing rooms.

Looks great and all, but where do they put all there stuff? No shelves for helmets or other equipment, no recessed closets for hanging clothes. Does everything go in their cubbyhole in the bench? :laugh:

There's 2 shelves and a bunch of hooks in the room proper

The Oilers home room itself is inter-connected to a pretty huge complex of facilities including:
- equipment maintenance area
- equipment storage (with museum-like giant sliding shelves)... perhaps some extra active-player equipment can be stashed here... not just new stuff
- medical area incl. a hydrotherapy area (see pic)
- massive fitness areas with natural light (it's a big weight room and another functional training area with a turf surface and mini-rink for shooting pucks)
- players lounge (watch the YT vid of Kevin Smith meeting Nurse and they're in this lounge)
- video room is like a small theater w/ 3 rows (see pic)
- besides the main sheet, there is a "Downtown Community Arena" attached where the team can also practice/skate (see pic)

Actually tough to find good pics, most exist from the early media tours when it opened.

Can get full of stuff:

Helmets & elbows can go on the upper shelf, skates have hooks up there too:

The Rangers could use an upgrade.

It's long overdue to just knock down and rebuild the Garden. The renovations aren't enough to keep up with father time.
