Great spot for a fan of the visiting team because this is where they shoot twice. Your instinct says closest seat to the glass is the best. I would say if you live for the fights and checks, then yes. But otherwise, you'll want rows 7-15 because you'll be able to see the other side of the ice fairly well. If I could afford season tickets, this is where I would want to sit on a nightly basis. Unfortunately, the "real fans" in Winnipeg can no longer afford tickets to games.
To give you an idea what the view of the ice is like from section 124, here is a Youtube video shot from there during a Jets vs. Philadelphia Flyers game.
