Inside Scotiabank Arena - Episode 7: Conversions

Ever wonder how we convert the court to rink (or vice versa!) so quickly? On this episode, we're showing you how our conversions team transforms the Raptors court to the Maple Leafs rink.

The way he was looking at her tho 😄

I know conversions are the stars here. but there are also the Housekeeping people cleaning up on the floor so you dont have popcorn flying off the panels hitting on the ice.

[@Daymond42]

And then there's some of the places where the conversion folks help out with housekeeping on non-conversion nights.

[@Cton88]

A well oiled machine my friend. I worked in the office, but I saw them convert it over and over at our arena. Cool job at least 🥶

[@strykerthepsycher8412]

Thank you for this comment!! I am on one of those crews in Detroit, and we get absolutely no recognition whatsoever. We get looked down on like we are a lower class of human. Sickening!

Any idea how to apply for this job?

[@TheLovinjourney]

Keep applying for conversions through MLSE, over and over again....don't stop till you get the job. Also, don't give up if you get an interview and there are computer glitches just keep refreshing.

That padding on the side of the basket looks like they gave it to a dog to play with

So the ice is always frozen down there? But the ice car always make the ice thinner. When will the ice become thick again?

[@whyshouldigivemyname]

The “Ice car” called a Zamboni doesn’t shave the ice thinner, it floods the ice with a thin layer of water, which quickly freezes, and makes the ice slightly thicker with a smoother cleaner surface!

[@xiaoyuliu1889]

@@whyshouldigivemyname Oh, thanks for clarifying that.

[@goombapizza6335]

@@whyshouldigivemyname Yeah, I'm North American and I didn't know that either. I thought the Zamboni was just sanding/buffing the ice. Thank you!

Why are the seats none of the same colors of the teams that play there?

[@loudeasis]

The colours of the seats are supposed to be based off the ones from Maple Leaf Gardens.

[@chrisragona3945]

They do roll out red seats for the Raps and like Lou said the Leafs seats are based off the old Maple Leaf Gardens set up.

[@kennethfordjr4214]

It's gays, concerts etc! Hockey is not a concern anymore!!!
