It really isn't. It's moving it from one corner of the metro area to another. No where near being central. The only thing going for it is the proximity to Scottsdale and Paradise Valley money. Unfortunately there is a big argument over whether those citizens are the ones spending money on NHL hockey. Seems there is more support from the locations where club teams and hockey families reside which makes a location hard to pick if it is about hockey. The problem is this isn't really about hockey, it's about real estate development and secondary revenue streams. Scottsdale provides biggest opportunity for spin off real estate development and cashing in big.
