Yes, reports from late 2025 indicate that Vancouver Canucks' new black seats with cupholders at Rogers Arena faced delays, with some season ticket holders learning the full completion might stretch into February 2026, despite earlier promises of being ready for the 2025-26 season, due to installation issues and a bankrupt subcontractor. Most seats were installed, creating a temporary "eyesore" of mixed old/new seats, but the final sections were pushed back from the original summer/fall 2025 timeline, with fans receiving credits for the inconvenience.
FYI, it's a $50 credit per seat for fans who are sitting in the old maroon seats.
Aquilini's rating in terms of "willingness to spend" on the franchise is low in many ways.
Heck, Rogers Arena did not even have cupholders in the new arena seats until the start of this season.
Rogers Arena is 30 years old! Finally, Canucks fans have cupholders to use for holding overpriced drinks if you choose to get ripped off by Aquaman by buying beer or other drinks in the arena.
I cannot believe that the Canucks are one of two teams, Calgary included, that do not have their own practice facility.
Aquaman lacks leadership when it comes to spending money to improve the team's facilities and improve the fans' experience at games.
You can say that he is a cheapskate in some ways.
Are the Abbotsford Canucks getting their championship rings soon?
