Renovations

Prior to the season renovations occurred to change Yost's seating capacity from 8100 to 7235. The renovation included a new energy efficient refrigeration unit and rink floor as well as the installation of a desiccant dehumidification system.[4] Other elements of the $US1.2 million (US$1.9 million in 2012 dollars)[5] renovation included arena lighting, sound system, and dasherboards topped with tempered glass as well as renovation of the player, penalty, and scorer's area boxes.[6] Despite the renovations that reduced seating capacity, as of 2011 the January 31 — February 1, 1992 weekend series against eventual national champion Lake Superior State continues to rank as the third highest weekend series attendance (15,240) in team history.[7]
