The thing is when the Bisons play a rink is offline for rentals, whether it be Wayne Fleming of the massive spectator capacity one being built for the Ice.

If Bisons get "free" ice time at the Ice rink which is never going to rent for $300/hour anyway and then turn over Wayne Fleming rentals for that same block of time back to the Ice to be rented to say a Manitoba Junior team it could be a win-win across the board. It isn't like the Bisons are hard pressed to find ice time somewhere for their home games.

In moving those home games to The Rink there is potential to grow the fan base and otherwise monetize the games.

As I said previously, MTS Centre will sit completely idol at prime evening slots of a Saturday night before they are renting it out to some beer league team. The home ice sheet for the Ice is going to be the same -- it is generally not available for rental to anyone, at any price, at any time.
