The only facility worth bragging about in this city is the new Winsport centre. Talisman centre while cool and functional could really use a modern facelift as well. Pretty sad if you ask me.

The Corral is legendary. I played a couple of beer league games there and it's just so bad that it's awesome. Like an old football stadium in Europe. Her Majesty watching each flick of your stick and each stride of your skates makes you try that little bit harder.
