Kettler Capitals Iceplex

The practice arena of the NHL’s Washington Capitals is also the highest rink above street-level in the nation. (It’s a beast.) The 137,000-square-foot complex above the Ballston Commons parking garage includes two NHL-size ice rinks, a pro-shop and seating for 1,200. Many area universities and pick-up league teams play here, but rarely a day goes by without public skate times. Check the calendar for Caps meet-and-greets and broomball games, too.
