Through Feb. 28, 2009, adults pay $10 and kids $8, including skate rentals. Another newcomer is the Seaport Ice rink at Pier...
...victory followed by a 3-2 loss—with the Fighting Sioux at Grand Forks in December of 2005. “Everyone knows they have to perform,” Biega said. “If we can execute and win individually every battle all over the ice, we’re going to make a statement to the nation what kind of team we’re going to be down the road.” Generating that momentum is critical for the Crimson, especially given that last year’s mid-season losing streak began...
