Either way, when constructing buildings, very rarely do municipalities consult with rulebooks. They just build what they can afford.

Dwyer University participates in NCAA Ice Hockey, the rink is owned/operated by the university. Without contacting them or the NCAA & asking, I am thinking they got special permission to design their rink that way.

Now a very interesting question, if you had the money & capabilities to build a barn for a hockey team, how would you design it?
