NHL Team Set to Demolish Arena After Receiving Approval for a New One
It's housed one Stanley Cup win, and several superstar players. One of the most iconic arenas of all time will be demolished soon.
Saddledome to be Demolished
After several calls for a new arena, including by players, the Saddledome will officially be demolished.
A new $1.2-billion development deal will have a new barn built, and the Calgary Stampede will be relocated to the land of the Saddledome.
While it will be great to have a new arena in Calgary, it will be bittersweet to see one of the most iconic buildings in hockey history demolished.
Farewell, Saddledome!
