It is home to the Saint Michael's College Purple Knights men's and women's ice hockey teams, the University of Vermont club ice hockey team, and a number of high school hockey teams. It was the former home to the Green Mountain Glades Junior A ice hockey team of the Eastern Junior Hockey League, who have since moved operations to Portland, Maine.

The Arena comprises two NHL-sized ice rinks each with a seating capacity of 600, a cafe, and pro shop. It also served as a venue for the 2012 IIHF Women's World Championship along with Gutterson Fieldhouse.
