I'm not real familiar with arena ice making/removal and the temperatures involved, but if it's a factor, it'd be no different than any other concrete exposed to the elements. Magic potion is added into concrete mixes forming micro-air pockets. That gives, for a lack of better way to put it, some "cushioning" for expansion when freezing, and contraction while thawing.
