since then the facility has grown in size for a total of 3 NHL sized ice sheets to fullfill the
growing demands of the Edina hockey community and the Edina Hockey Association.
The original 1966 "West Rink" complexis where the rink started and boasts some impressive sight lines within it's array of green vintage spectator bench seats, along with some historic dasher boards that were recycled from the Minnesota North Stars old home: Met Center where they were installed into Braemar "West" prior to the Met's demolition in 1994.  Braemar's other 2 rinks are aptly called "East and South".  Braemar is the home rink of the history laden Edina High School boys and girls hockey teams.  The various state championship banners hang proudly in the rafters as a testament of the past Hornets state High School hockey Championships from: 1969, 1971, 1974 East, 1978 East, 1979 East, 1982, 1984, 1988, 1997 and 2010 - with many more surely to follow since the hockey tradition at Edina runs deep within this community!
