They got those camera lenses that make a 10x20 room look like a great hall, too.

The Krak House has pretty nice digs.
The ceiling should have been an aquarium with squid in it.

Such a terrible name.The Krak House has pretty nice digs.
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.

Just got a peek at the Flyers visitors room. Not too far off from the two above, lol.

I took a look at their schedule and they play 3 games at the Wells Fargo Center, so I'd guess so as well.
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?
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:

Hard to find a good pic/vid of the fitness area:

Why are teams still putting their team logo on the floor? Terrible waste of space since no one is supposed to walk over it.

Better question is why did they leave the tacky-ass drop ceiling and ceiling fans...
I keep looking at this and thinking the logo on the ceiling is either upside down or backwards. Doesn't look right.

This one really illustrates how cosmetic most of these changes are.

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.
