I can totally see the 17th Ave/Olympic Way route becoming the downtown bypass for cars going to Inglewood from the south via Macleod Trail and east from the beltline. With a C Train station planned for just north of the arena it will definitely become a high traffic area. There will be people waiting for busses, getting dropped off, etc. to keep the area frequented regularly. Unfortunately, I think that there will be more traffic jams than just game days.
