The ultimate hockey fan cave might be in an O'Fallon, Mo. basement

An O’Fallon, Missouri, resident might have the coolest basement around — especially if you are a hockey fan. Dennis Minner has converted the space into a mini-Scottrade Center, with much of it devoted to his love of the St. Louis Blues hockey team.

He got the idea shortly after moving into the house.

Pretty cool for his wife to be so accommodating like that.

After a few brews I wouldn't be able to help myself from body checking every time someone was against the boards.

I concur to that the wife is very accommodating. Many wives would not be a big Heck No!!

That’s really cool. I have just been wanting to move to a place where I could build my kids a cool knee hockey rink. I have the idea in my head just need a play to make it happen at. The rink in my head is pretty similar to the rink he has.

Sometimes having a idea in your heads can be a crazy idea. Best of luck to you making this happen for your kids. As if you have several playing hockey I am sure they would get a ton of use out of it. If you ever do feel free to share the pictures.

A friend of mine has a small synthetic rink in his basement. Enough room to do a little skating, and it's really good for instruction or practicing shooting and stickhandling. If you have the idea, go for it - I wish I had done something like that. Your kids would love a knee hockey rink like that.
