    That looks like the backyard rink the Oilers created for the 'Backyard Classic'.

    A radio station ran a promotion. The winner got to be captain of his own team (whoever he picked) and they played a team of Oiler alumni (Buchberger, Lowe, etc.) on a rink the Oilers laid down in the guys backyard.

    Lowe was a meanie and kept stripping the puck from kids but it was made up for by the Oilers having a shooter tutor for a goalie.

    The Oilers lost this years game in a shoot out IIRC.

      The radio station broadcast the game. It was funnier than hell.

          It does have to fit in someone's backyard.

              I figured it looked like Edmonton.

                    Almost 10 years, 75 to 84. I did some of my primary and all of my high school there.
                    What?

                      Looks like this example fits two peoples' backyards. I'd bet that's why that fence is at the midpoint.

                          Yes of course I saw that too. Guess I should have written 'a larger number of neighbors' then

                                I doubt he'd say so
