In the spirit of a Pacific Division, I think Boise would be a great choice, always have. CenturyLink Arena holds 5,002 seats for hockey, and is currently the home to the Idaho Steelheads. The arena hosted the 2007 ECHL All-Star Game. The team currently sells out about 80% of the arena every game.
Boise is only a quick flight from Calgary, has a local /metro population of 212,000 / 616,000 and has an airport that caters to all major destinations in Western US (not sure there's a direct Calgary flight, though).
