For all those people that complain about any rink, if there is playable ice, keep quiet. There was a time when there were very few rinks around, and all the kids that play now wouldn’t have had the chance to play without all the rinks we have now. Ice is ice. It gives kids a chance to play. If a rink is too dirty or not nice enough for you, go play golf.

Some people never played at the Golden Mile or Central Pittsburgh and it shows.

I think at this point no one takes this seriously. It's just overpriced summer hockey.

You're about 2 decades late, maybe 25 years.

Or Bridgeville!?!?😂

It would be great if the Vengeance started throwing toy rats on the ice after a victory.

Great. Another streaming service to add on to the ever increasing number of apps and viewing platforms that I already pay out the nose for. What’s one more little, tiny, minuscule, hardly noticeable automatic recurring charge gonna do? BB is quickly moving down my personal scale of organizations who negatively impact my finances and lifestyle unnecessarily.

I don't think it's asking all that much for them to take care of their rodent problem. Especially when they are charging around 500 an hour for ice.

It's true that Alpha is a mess, but, man, there aren't many "nicer" rinks in the area, to be honest. Especially nicer rinks with three sheets of ice. The truth is that really decent facilities are rare in the region, sadly.

According to parents, there's like a dozen teams' worth of AAA players.

I did hear the tournament is going to be expanded this year. Don't know the details.

Well, yeah. We don't have 6 teams worth of AAA players here

So it’s basically going to be a mostly AA team paying AAA prices and paying for hockey equipment to be flown on airplanes?

Well, it appears they realized there was another revenue stream to squeeze. I can't speak about whether their service is any good, but I'll say this: out east they own everything and maybe this isn't an issue, but what this means for us locally is that if you are a team whose home rink is a BB rink, you'll have to have both LiveBarn and BBTV if the grandparents want to watch the games, or if, like me, you normally download all the games for review.
