On the Layout: Hockey Night in Canada

     If you've ever been to Toronto, you know the CN Tower's neighbor is the Rogers Centre.  It's a massive concrete structure that is home to the Toronto Blue Jays and a hotel.  I haven't really figured out how to build this structure yet (I'm thinking it'll involve a 3D printer).  In the interim, I've put a Busch sports hall in its location.  The kit is designed to be used for basketball and indoor soccer, but I wanted to make it a little more Canadian.  This hockey rink is a true example of selective compression.  The ice is very much not to scale, but I've had this building sitting on a shelf, and it's temporary (I hope).

I printed the hockey rink and glued a plastic transparency on top of it using Super 77.  The transparency gives the page a shine.  I added the boards, and a Zamboni I brought from Miniprints.

The project isn't finished.  I need to add safety glass to the perimeter of the rink and the penalty box.  It would also be great if someone would make hockey players and nets (hint hint Miniprints).
