What are you smoking?
IMO the shelf life on any post 1995 building is closer to 50-60 years and if they were built big enough (Canadian tire centre,honda centre,united centre) You can reconfigure them to today's standards and tomorrow's. You think bell centre and the rogers arena will be up for discussion in 8ish years? HA!
Rogers place will be around for 100+ years I can almost guarantee it. If rexall lasted 40+ as a limited concrete circle (and aged quite well considering). Than this spacious well thought out steel structure can be reconfigured over and over again to keep up with the ages. As can most of today's NHL arenas
