At Swift Current City Council last night an update was given saying that the Innovation Credit Union iPlex is on track to being ready for hockey by October.

General Manager of Community Services Dean Robson said things are moving along as planned.

Robson said the rink will feature NHL-spec boards and glass for the 2017-18 season.

They are installing some custom pieces around the players' benches before the ice goes in. The ice is expected to be ready for skating before October.

The Broncos play their first home game of the season on October 7 after starting on the road.
