I absolutely love the old barn in cloquet. its the new arena that i don't like cause its so hot. I can't stand it when its just barely cold enoght to still have ice.

If you want the best arena for high school and below your going to have to go with :arrow:

1. Thief River Falls Ralph Engelstad :D
2. Schwans Super Rink (Very questionable, would you rather have a couple of decent rinks or one phenominal rink?) :?
3. Warroad Gardens (Its nice but is it worthy of 3rd place or is it lower?):?

No comment on the bad rinks.

Best-
Cloquet (barn)- The ice is fast
Duluth heritage center-everything is nice, the ice is pretty fast and the lockeroom are big, and everyone is in the game
Grand rappids- the whole building is nice

Worts-
Proctor- the ice is ok but the lockerooms are tiny and the boards have huge gaps in them, and the train whistle that they had was annoyyiiinnnnggggg
Colquet (the new rink)- lockerooms are nice but the ice is way to slow
Pine city- There is no life in the arena every thing in it is to quite
