The Delta Center is over 30 years old, so it's likely time for a replacement. Unfortunately, it's not well-equipped for hockey. When it hosted the figure skating at the Olympics, they had to pull back the seats so much the skaters said it was like skating in a canyon.



The Grizzlies play in the former Olympic hockey venue from 2002, but it only has a capacity of about 10,000 for hockey (still an improvement over ASU).

Either building could serve as a temporary home until a new arena is built.
