O Canada 4

Day four on my series Things Canada is known for. Today is hockey. Ice hockey is Canada's official sport for winter. This is Roger's Place Arena home of the Edmonton Oilers of the National Hockey League and the Edmonton Oil Kings of the Western Hockey League which is a junior league. If you have just joined this series l would love to know what you think of when you think of Canada. Today's post is for Amy K @amyk Leslie @lesip eDorre @edorreandresen all of who mentioned hockey

[Dione Giorgio]

Beautiful place and looks very modern. Must be great to be in there and watch the game.

[Hoopydoo]

That certainly looks an impressive building

[Bucktree]

Impressive contemporary design. Nice shot.

[Tunia McClure]

neat building

Nice building. I remember I had visited Montreal Olympic
Stadium many years ago, somewhere in 1988.

[Lou Ann]

Really nice architecture. So sleek!

[Peter Dulis]

nice

Yay, a building named after me!!! Nice shot though...

I think of snow and maple syrup. :).
Interesting building.

[plainjaneandnonnonsense]

[Fisher Family]

A lovely shot of this attractive curvy building - fav!

Ian

[Bill]

Interesting looking building.

I like your POV, and the way the light is hitting the arena building.

[Francoise]

nice swoosh to this with the tracks in the snow and the cars

[Agnes]

Beautiful shot

[gloria jones]

Super pov

[Leslie]

looks like a lovely stadium . That road is really dirty

[haskar]

Nice pov.

[Heather]

A very impressive building, and a nice shot with the reflections in the windows!

[Phil Howcroft]

great light and I love the slush on the floor

[wendy frost]

Great capture against the blue sky.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I like the design of that building. We had a pastor/friend when our sons were growing up who played professional hockey in Canada- he was near Quebec. I forget which team he played on- MIGHT have been the Maple Leafs- not sure- my memory fails me.

[Islandgirl]

Great pov!

[Kathy]

An enormous arena. I like the light glowing on the patterned glass

[Wylie]

Apart from the shiny building it does look a little barren and cold.

[Issi Bannerman]

Nice, cold capture!

[Boxplayer]

Nice wide angle.

[Kerry McCarthy]

Nice curves and lines.

[GaryW]

What a fabulous looking place!

[Beverley]

Great…. Cool shot

[Pam]

I love that building. I have to say that I do think of hockey when I think of Canada. The mountains in Vancouver are amazing. I think Canada's side of the Niagara Falls is much prettier then the United States side.

[Margaret Brown]

A lovely modern building, it looks very cold too!!

@lesip Leslie the city uses a combination of salt and sand when dealing with icy road conditions. The negative side is when it starts to melt the roads are dirty and slushy
