It's predecessor, the Fitzgerald Fieldhouse, is right next to it and probably could be made into a hockey arena, but that's not going to happen either. Right now, the Fieldhouse hosts a bunch of Olympic sports like volleyball, wrestling, etc.

Complete aside: I think there must still be a decent sized cadre of Pitt fans who cringe at the loss of Pitt Stadium, regardless how nice Petersen is, no?
