Serious question...."Lifeguard Arena" I always envisioned as a CNA type facility. There's talk in press about that being the locale of the AHL team games. One article says construction hasn't begun yet. But construction on Lifeguard has already been underway. Rumors, none I could find in press, have been that they would build yet another Arena near Henderson International.....
You need a 6000-7000 seat arena along the lines of what Orleans offers. Is there space for such an arena and parking at the Downtown hendertucky site?
No the Henderson Ice Center downtown will be smaller than CNA.
that's what I thought. So the options are to contract with an existing arena long term or to build a new arena. Existing possibilities are Orleans, T&M and the new MSG Sphere. I don't see T&M being a long term solution, I think Orleans has already proven themselves a fickle partner, and let's hope it isn't Sphere (traffic nightmare and probably would want a ridiculous price for use of the arena). So, new arena near Henderson Executive sounds good to me
Can the MSG Sphere fit a sheet of ice? Can it hold 8,000 with a sheet of ice?
The MGM Grand Garden Arena right across the street from T-Mobile Arena is big enough. Doubt it would be there though.
Probably not but would be an intriguing location. Grand Garden hardly getting used these days and I still think central location is important to build the fan base. If you live in Summerlin or NLV are you really driving all the way to Henderson Executive 40 times a year to watch minor league hockey year after year?
This- Build it near St. Rose/Bermuda, put some bars/restaurants nearby. 215 lets out at Pecos, I-15 at St. Rose, plenty of ingress. Summerliners can make the trek. Or not. This is Henderson's team.People who don't live in Summerlin do so for the Aviators. Navigating the Strip and parking for a VGK game is more difficult, IMO.

This may be Henderson, but the rumored site will be off St Rose really close to the 15. Access will be very easy. Seems pretty typical to throw Minor League out in the 'burbs and they are mostly successful there.
Definitely not. MSG Sphere is a theater.Can the MSG Sphere fit a sheet of ice? Can it hold 8,000 with a sheet of ice?

At the Henderson Pavilion site. Terrible location for traffic.
I dunno, only 6K seats, I think they could build a couple garages, including on what is the parking lot next to the library, and be set. That 2 lane road was designed to be easily expandable to 3. a few fans, like me, will want to take Horizon Ridge home, but the vast majority will be heading straight to the freeway. Assuming evening game times, most of the District will be dead quiet when games let out, so it would be a matter of overriding signals and keeping the salmon run moving to the freeway onramps. For a weekend early game, all bets are off.Yeah this is going to be a nightmare on gamedays. I live a couple blocks away and while it will be cool to walk to games it's too much of a residential area IMO. People are going to have to park at GVR because there really isn't room at the site unless they demolish the Multi-Gen.
Article doesn't say. If it is replacing, that would really suck.Is the new arena replacing the Pavilion or being built adjacent?

With the police station, library and multigen facility, I don't see any room for an arena without replacing something.
