The Phoenix Coyotes may not have an owner, but they apparently they boast one of the best arenas in the National Hockey League.

According to the Phoenix Business Journal, Jobing.com Arena was ranked as the eighth-best venue in the NHL.

Jobing.com Arena opened ten years ago, and while the Coyotes future has been uncertain, the facility is well-regarded for its sight lines.

Overall, the XCel Energy Center, home of the Minnesota Wild, came in first, followed by the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C. where the Capitals play and the Tampa Bay Times Forum, home of the Lightning, respectively.
