The metro valleys biggest hockey fan base in Scottsdale but close enough to both east and west valley populations. Both those sides will not have to go through phoenix down town to get to the arena. The 101 provides E/W travel for east and west valley fans and the 51 provides travel route for people in the city of phoenix area. The north/south 101 provides travel route for chandler /gilbert area. Probably the best option if a downtown location is not available…. Which it isn’t
