Monopoly has led to dangerous conditions. Since they have no competition with other ice rinks, now that Polar runs basically all of the rinks in Raleigh/Wake Forest, they've allowed ice conditions to deteriorate. Lines are barely visible on the rink and there's a small channel that runs along the boards, probably explains why there's been several broken legs in the past couple of months.
The officiating for the men's hockey leagues is as poor as the ice conditions as the officials often let anything go either because they're incompetent or inattentive.
