The main "Red Rink" seats approximately 1,200 and is the current home of the Connecticut Whale of the National Women's Hockey League beginning in the 2016–17 season. It is also used for high school hockey games and often hosts CIAC playoff games. The arena formerly hosted the NCAA Division I college ice hockey programs of Quinnipiac University. The "Blue Rink" has few stands and hosts the arena's Learn to Skate programs, as well as public skating and youth hockey. The newest rink, the "White Rink", opened in January 2016 and also includes bleachers for larger crowds.
The arena is also home to the Greater New Haven Warriors Youth Hockey program, the Connecticut Polar Bears girls' hockey program, and serves as a secondary home for Yale Youth Hockey and Wallingford Youth Hockey.
Its sister facility is the Milford Ice Pavilion in Milford, Connecticut.
