The National Hockey Center has served the Huskies over the last 20 years, but the need for a renovation has been apparent.
John Frischmann, acting director of SCSU building and grounds, said that construction of renovations to the National Hockey Center will begin after the current hockey season. There will be two phases of construction; the first is the structural expansion and will begin at the end of the current season, ending before the next.
The second is bricklaying, placing glass and adding the final touches and will begin after next season. The whole renovation will give the National Hockey Center a completely different look and will be completed for the start of the 2012-13 hockey season.
