I took a look at the seating chart that was linked to in the 2010 ordering 
process.  I then compared it to a picture of the basketball configuration used 
at Ford Field.  It looks like the same temporary stands configuration along 
the sides will be used.  The temporary stands at the end will not be.

For reference, a standard NBA and NCAA basketball court is 94 feet by 50 
feet.  If the seating chart is accurate in perspective, meaning the relative size 
of and jogs in the temporary stands, then the rink will probably be close to 
the stands.  That would imply the relative size of the hockey rink graphic on 
the seating chart would be wrong, probably sized against a basketball 
graphic in what ever seating chart was created for that.  For comparsion, 
here are basketball configuration charts:

The upper two-thirds of the upper bowl will not be used.  The lower priced 
tickets start with the last section of temporary stands on each side on each 
end and goes around the bowl section.

Thank you,
