Someone asked why the impending Women's Varsity Hockey team couldn't also use
Mariucci Arena....
 
Well, as it is right now, Mariucci Arena is over-used. There have been many
complaints about the ice being bad. The reason is that the ice is rented out
*so* much that there isn't enough down time to give it the care that it should
have. At least that's what I've heard anyway.
 
So, if the U were to support another Varsity Hockey team, they sure could use
another rink!  Even if it was only a practice facility.
 
The National Hockey Center in St. Cloud has two Olympic sized rinks.
