JMS Hockey

I remember someone posted on the old site asking about stick puck time or dead ice. Basically just a time to shoot around and work on skills, not a set game. (usually if enough people are there a pickup game starts eventually, sorta like outdoor hockey rinks) But anyway I figured I would bring the post back since more ice will probably open up. The only one I know of is Maple Grove. They have it listed as "dead ice" (they have a schedule online) its $6 and the times vary, most the time it is 9am-2pm and although I don't go that often it is rarely busy. (I will be there tomorrow with a couple people tho) If anyone knows anywhere else, feel free to share.

Eden Prairie also has "Development Hockey" slots, usually early AM on Sat/Sun. The rules are no team practices/small game stuff, no scrimmages, and protective gear. Sometimes a bunch of high-schoolers or younger would have a mini scrimmage on half of the ice and the rink managers let them go. So the rules are pretty flexible. http://www.edenprairie.org/modules/showdocument.aspx?documentid=2546
