Ha! as a diehard hockey fan in Canada I have to say that Carolina surprises me with how loud their building is.

Sounds like it's busy up in NY! Last season there were like 13 holes, if not more. About 4 on each corner. After the renovation 3 corners have 2 holes, and 1 corner only one. Last season I usually found a free hole, now they have photogs switching between periods.

So, it's just wide enough for a 70-200? With my luck, I'm sure the second I put my lens through that hole the puck would come flying at it and break it into smithereens.

You wouldn't need more than a 70-200, especially with any crop factor.  http://emjfotografi.com/

The holes at where I shoot we have a piece that replaces the glass when we are not using them so there isn't always a hole. We have a piece we have to remove Last season at MSG they used the velcro, but now it's more advanced and you have to lock it into place...and its on a wire rope, so you can't steal it. lol

Can be a huge benefit for you. TomCross13 wrote in post #13520804 Sweet bro!
