The NHL-sized rink is a key component of the civic centre planned for the second phase of the three-phase redevelopment, on the east side of the site. The design also includes about 400 fixed seats.
When the rink was not going to be in use by the team, the ice time would be open for public uses and community programming.
In addition to the rink, the Canucks were also set to have about 25,000 sq ft of commercial space over multiple levels dedicated for their uses, including over 8,000 sq ft of space immediately adjacent to the rink as a sports medicine hub for both the team and the community.
