Argyll Arena
2022 Aug 25
Legendary Arena. The showers are hands down the best in the city, but please do wear sandals. Shower water temperatures can be adjusted to the equivalent of lava if that is your thing, or as cold as the mighty River North Saskatchewan in December. Water pressure will not disappoint.

Shout out to Kenny, the previous rink-hand-Zamboni driver. An absolute artisan of ice making. Not sure where he is right now, but I hope he is well. I picture him with his sick duster laying poolside, Mexico, with a case of Corona on ice listening to The Eagles Greatest Hits. Perhaps him and the new ownership didn't see eye to eye, or perhaps the younger Zamboni drivers pushed him out as they were tired of being outperformed.

If you got a beer league game, bring your kid's skates along for a sharpening and pick them up after your game. The skate sharpener guy has unreal flow and always loves to talk Oil. Do not discuss Nurse's contract- Judging from the very fair skate sharpening prices, he hates overpayment.
