Benefits
- One primary location (re: sporting/entertainment district)
- Year round use of overall facility (hockey, football, concerts, etc)
- One location for Calgary Transit (SunAlta Station)
- One main parkade
- Major concerts and sporting events can operate simultaneously (hockey and big concert, football and small concert, etc).
Here's where it COULD go:

Man that combo stadium, arena building looks sick. if we had something like that I'd buy Flames, Stamps, Hitmen and Roughnecks tix for life. Hell, I'd probably buy soccer ones too lol.
On a related note, that moveable roof is cool too. Kinda reminds me of BC Place and how they have a faux roof for soccer. That would make Hitmen and Roughnecks games more intimate - better fan experience for sure.
Something like this would also blow Edmonton's arena and Regina's stadium out of the water. Actually it would blow anything in North America out of the water.
