uSask to build new ice rinks with $1M support from Saskatoon
July 21, 2016
The University of Saskatchewan will now be able to replace the over 80 year-old Rutherford Rink with the help of a $1M commitment from the city of Saskatoon. The terms of the commitment reportedly state that the ice will be available for Saskatoon Minor Hockey, public skating, and other sports programs. Vancouver Canucks head coach Willie Desjardins expressed his support for the agreement, noting that “it’s about time. They’ve turned out a lot of great players and I think they need a great facility to play in.”
