How often does everyone get to the rink?

[roller to ice 0]

I was just discussing this with my buddy and every since we graduated (hes 19 im 18) ive had alot more time to spend going to open hockey and joining adult leagues i get to the rink around 3 or 4 times a week to play and maybe once or twice just to dick around in open skate, while even though he works at a rink is having a much harder time finding time to do anything besides shoot around when his shift is over. how often does everyone else get out/how many if any league do you play in etc.?

3 leagues, 2 beer league. I get out to the rink anywhere from 6 days a week when I have a full week, to 4 times a week, sometimes twice on the same night. I cant say I would want it any other way.

Different context, but my daughter figure skates 6 times per week and my son's hockey is good for about 5 rink visits per week.

I probably drink bad coffee in a rink for about 7 of those session per week. That plus my skate when I can get to it, gets me to 8/week.

right now I play in 2 beer leagues, and play pick up whenever I can. so I play about 4 to 5 hours a week. then when the outdoor rinks open, probably 8 hours a week.

pickup on tuesday, wednesday, friday and sat morning, and 2 beer league teams on saturday and sunday.

In season, 7 days a week, unless we get the rare weekend off. Definitely cut back in the summer, however, I show up maybe once or twice a week.

I used to play beer league, so that was once a week. Add in random pickup sessions, and it was 2-3 times per week.

Now I just do pickup, yet didn't skate almost all of October and November.

I play in a couple mens leagues, so I'm getting out 2 nights a week this year. I used to coach, so it was a lot more then.

I play pickup Sunday nights. Lately 2 hours but may be cutting back to 1hour.

Im so jealous to you guys for having the chance to play stick&puck, pickup etc. I would really love if it would work here. Or even if somebody tried to make it work :\

Not enough, I haven't played since September, and even in that season I had a 30-day suspension(for a bullshit unwarranted reason) first game of the season, along with a hat trick, haha. Apparently the director of the league I was playing in got fired, things are a mess and nothing ever happened for the winter. So I have no idea what to do aside from drop-in, but cash hasn't been flowing like I'd hope so I haven't had time to make it out recently, I'm losing my mind looking at my gear laying on my bedroom floor.

play in one serious league, another league to get more ice, train with both teams when they dont inter twine, plus S&P sessions whenever i get the chance, try to get on the ice every day..

Two or three days a week, but one or two of those is often an entire-day excursion, sometimes from 6am to midnight.

I have spurts, when i was laid off i was sneaking into blue card 3 times a week and had 2 more pick up in the same week. I got a new job so when im on afternoons i could have possibly have 5 ice times, none of which is league/organized which I miss but I'm 21 so it's ahrd to find them. Anyway but when I'm on days I only can get out once a week which sucks. I went stretches in the spring/summer where I couldnt find ice for a month, can't stand it

Semi-serious (if that makes any sense) beer league, plus 3 skates a week with different pick-up crews; so 5-6 games a week if I can make it to all of them. Time has been a little tight for me lately though, allowing me to usually only make it to 2 or 3 most weeks.

The last 3 or so years of highschool I was playing all the time, it was unbelievable. I had 5-6 practices a week, 2-3 games a week, 1 beer-league a week, and 4-5 referee games a week. I practically lived at the rink. This year now that I'm at college I have 1 practice, 1 or 2 games, 4-5 ref games a week and the occasionaly shinny and stick-and puck session, like 1 every 2 weeks. Really sucks :(. The one thing I really miss about being in highschool is the amount of hockey I played.

Hockey scheduling around my area is pretty weak. Only 1 Beer league, 1-2 pick-ups and 1-2 stick and puck sessions available to people that work regular hour jobs. I am jealous some of you guys get 5-7 days a week to play, that would rock. Right now I get like pick up type and 1 stick and puck, not enough....

I'm in a beer league that plays once a week. Try to do pickup twice and stick time once, weekly. Tweaked my quad/flexor region a week ago so I've been taking it easy. I was at the rink everyday before that happened for a week straight, with multiple ice times daily.

Used to be 6 out of the 7 days, but since I graduated it's been like twice.
