The owners of the Ice Den--a popular ice rink in North Scottsdale--has purchased Chandler-based Polar Ice. The renamed Ice Den Chandler is located at 7225 W. Harrison St. Prior to the purchase by Ice Den, there were concerns that Polar Ice Chandler was going to be torn down.

“We are thrilled to have acquired the Chandler facility. Our initial efforts will be focused on revitalizing the business and the facility and getting to know the community and our customers. We will invest the necessary resources and capital to build consistently high quality hockey and skating programs, as we have at our North Scottsdale location, which is utilized annually by over one million people.  We are fortunate to have a highly experienced management team who has been with us since the Ice Den opened in 1997. They know how to grow and operate high quality, successful hockey and skating programs, and I am confident they will do so in Chandler,” says Taylor Burke, who is President of Rainy Partners, the owner of the Ice Den facilities.
