Summer, spring, fall, winter… and for those of you that don’t know, we also have our treasured fifth season: hockey. Of course, hockey is in full swing all across Canada, but let’s talk about how we celebrate it right here in our own little city.
Outdoor/Indoor Areanas
Did you know there are 19 outdoor rinks divided between 16 of St Albert’s neighborhoods, 3 indoor rinks at Servus Place, and 2 indoor rinks at the Kinex Arena

Between 2 Source For Sports locations, a newly expanded Sport Chek, St Albert Bladz, Canadian Tire, and a Walmart, you might find yourself needing nothing after a trip or two. And let’s not forget a pit stop at Game On sports to pick up a jersey and an ugly Christmas sweater.
Oh, but you don’t have time for playing hockey?
Fear not! There are more than enough places you can go to catch the game on a big screen in St. Albert. Between Boston Pizza, Central Social Hall, and a list of local pubs, you’re bound to find the perfect place to grab some food, a drink, and cheer.
If leaving the comfort of home is not your style, turn your living room into the ultimate entertainment room. It doesn’t take much! We recommend starting with a TV, a bowl of popcorn, a plate of wings, and – if you’re feeling adventurous – a Budweiser Red Light to really step it up.
But you have an on-the-go lifestyle? Well, before you’ve left the safety of a Wifi connection, download the NHL app so you can keep track of your favorite teams and the games you can’t watch. If that doesn’t cut it, try out Rogers Game Center Live and watch any game right off your phone.
Ps. There’s also a ball hockey league.
