Hi Guys i'm in the same position as joppee...:) I was having a look at Villagio 3weeks ago and there as already boards around the rink but still no ice and construction going on... Anyone have idea when they will finish?? I hope soon as the Mall ice rink is kind of small...

Anyway there is a tall plexi glass all around the new rink and no classic player benches... but size look good at least...

There isn't what I would consider to be competitve Hockey here, the local league is basically an excuse to get drunk and attempt to slap a puck around on a teeny tiny patch of ice that is the City Center hockey rink. However Villagio will be opening a regulation size rink, and they have expressed interest in attracting some REAL competitive hockey, so we shall see. :)

Don't know about the cost but there's a local league. Click on the link below. There's a ice rink at City Center Mall and there's going to be one at the new Villagio Mall too. Don't know the cost.
