On Sunday, December 8, venerable sports photographer Bruce Bennett took a sequence of shots that captured workers converting "The World's Most Famous Arena" after that afternoon's Celtics-Knicks game. If you quickly click through all 25 shots, you'll get a time lapse effect as they set up the rink for that night's Capitals-Rangers tilt. The crew of more than 60 carpenters, electricians and workers had less than four hours to get the job done.
