They have to take out a bunch of seats and shove the rink to one end. This results in thousands of seats with an obstructed view. It's a purpose built basketball arena.

It literally doesn't fit.

The Coyotes literally played out of that arena before Glendale was built. Yes, it sucked. The sight lines were horrible and there were obstructed seats. No one is saying it is a good building for hockey, but it has been used for hockey and could be used again.
