Nice rink. Ice along boards of the big rink is always not shaved down into the boards. Whoever cuts the ice needs a lesson concerning the ice being flat into the boards and not ramped. Not sure if this is taught or that's how college hockey plays but it's not something that helps anyone along the boards behind the net.
Excellent small arena with a lot of history. No seat is bad in this house, the furthest you can get off the ice is about 20 rows back. The only seats with backs seem to be in sections B and C, with the top row of all sections using the outer wall as a seat back. Bench seating throughout.
As a result, you can hear everything on this ice - players talking to each other, passes, puck hitting the goalie, and the scrape of the skates. Great environment to watch a hockey game. The corrugated steel roof certainly assists with moving sound around, I believe the players can hear every comment yelled from the stands.

This is a great campus hockey facility, however, they need to up date the seats. It's difficult for older people to sit on benches.
Slater Family Ice Arena provides a great public skate experience. Visitors have the option to either purchase ice skates on-site or bring their own. It does get pretty packed, so weaving through the crowd while skating was a bit tricky. However, we had a great time as beginners.
Such a great atmosphere. My son loves playing hockey here. Always clean and the staff is so friendly.
Had a lot of fun for the short time that I was able to skate! Ended up falling and twisting my ankle after 25 minutes when I tried to skate. It was my first time trying to skate since the late 1990s. Never was very good at it, apparently still not good at it! The skate rental, payment and food stand is on your left as you go in the door. The main ice is further down the corridor and through the doors on your left. I couldn't find a map or anything online so hope that helps!
I love hockey! This is a great place to watch a game. The fan involvement is fantastic. I loved the athletic band. We went on Teddy Bear night. Fans threw bears on the ice which were donated to Children’s Hospital. The old photos on the wall were neat to look at.
There are so many fun things to do with your family and friends. Fun For ALL AGES. The games are energetic and fun. Tours can be given for having little ones on mites and Mini mites. I really recommend going here!
