Hockey Finder is bringing more and more beginner adult pickup hockey opportunities to it’s registered users. “We’ve created partnerships with ice arenas and our registered users where everyone wins. More and more games are being offered through these partnerships and the greatest part is it’s truly a win-win-win. The arena sells tough to fill ice times, the organizers and players don’t have to worry about anything other than playing pickup hockey and Hockey Finder is growing. This is exactly what we were hoping we could do.” says Derrik Dyka co-founder of Hockeyfinder.com.

Hockey Finder has partnered with Minnesota Made Ice Center in Edina to bring more hockey opportunities to adult players. “The convenience of playing when I can is great! Having moved here from out of state it allowed me to find a place to play hockey and meet people in the process” says Bryce Denton CFO of IntrinXec Management. The program allows adult hockey players the ability to find pickup games which suit their skill level and schedule. It also eliminates many of the headaches which are associated with pickup hockey and/or open hockey. It’s really a three way partnership between Hockey Finder, the arena and the players where everyone wins.
To find out more go to www.hockeyfinder.com and register. Once you become a member you can look for games in your area or if you want to get more involved become an approved organizer bycontacting Don Giroux.

It’s been a long time since I hit the outdoor rinks and it looks like that’s becoming more and more of a trend. Here’s an excerpt from an article in the Star Tribune “When maintenance comes in to flood and there are no skate marks, that says ‘what are we wasting our time for here?’ ” said Park and Recreation Director Jim Kappelhoff. “We’re finding that kids are just not going to the skating rinks any longer in the wintertime. They’ve become homebound with other activities, such as computers, cell phones and video games.”
The article also mentions how budget cuts are affecting the amount of ice available.
