TURIN, Italy (AP) - The ice-making equipment at the secondary hockey arena for the Turin Games will be replaced after failing at an Olympic test event.
The decision by the organizers comes less than three months before the Feb. 10 opening ceremony. Jukka Pekka Vuorinen, hockey competition manager for the organizing committee, said Saturday the cost for the change at Torino Esposizioni will be several hundred thousand dollars.
The arena is not a permanent hockey site and will revert to an exhibition space after the Winter Games.
