OC needs more rinks, but is there really a reason to put 4 of them in one area? From the article it sounds like they originally only were planning to build 3 and then it was changed to 4. I wonder if this was from the city or the Samuelis.
If seems to me that it would be better to build more, smaller facilities than a few large ones.
i think they wanted a bigger and more modern "main rink" in OC to replace Anaheim Ice, which for years has been the main rink in OC
the rapid growth of the high school league being the other reason. with so many new players the demand for ice is only growing, and opening this new rink will be HUGE for hockey in OC
