Yes, of course, by design. It forces the school to use XL for big games.
The XL has a 9000 seat capacity for hockey and we are currently averaging a little over 3000. It costs $20,000 to lease it, plus a use fee, plus $3 per seat surcharge. You’d have to think it would be way more cost-effective to just add another 500 seats to Toscano.
I’m not complaining. It’s a beautiful rink and I’m looking forward to seeing a game there. For what it’s worth, seeing games in the XL is a blast as well. I just wish the CDRA would price gouge us.
