Oceanside Ice Arena

Arena is old school, low ceilings, and you can hear the players on the ice. It is cold in there…and I mean Midwest cold, not just AZ cold! 🥶 😉 If you have General Admission tickets sit up higher (4 rows of bleacher seating) for better sight lines. Last thing, I really wish the staff would stop people walking during play (we watched ASU play Clarkson). That happens at every other hockey arena/venue I’ve ever attended games, until this weekend.

We saw the last championship game of hockey at this arena. Loved it for 20 years!

Stopped by to look around. Paid 5 bucks to get in, looked around a bit, good way to kill some time.

I played open hockey here. The game was fun, lots of people and 3 three goalies. The facility itself is nice but small. The ice was interesting, it felt almost tacky. The schedule for hockey is nice and consistent. It doesn't fluctuate every week like other rinks.

Watched University of Michigan skate to a tie on a Saturday afternoon against ASU women's hockey. Nice venue with hockey going on all day, every day. Pee wee league to college going on. Looked like well maintained ice. Probably open skating at some time during the week, so give them a call and bring your blades! The game was not very well supported, but then I've always said Arizona doesn't have hockey fans, just people looking for a cold barn to hang out in. Jeff L-8 Google Guide.
