08:17 AM ET 09.26 | You just don't mess with "Coach Marla" and her icetime. That's what 40 locked-out NHLers discovered Tuesday morning at the St. Louis Park Rec Center. The no-nonsense, red-headed figure-skating instructor marched straight out to center-ice during a scrimmage and kicked the players off. "It was impressive," locked-out Wild veteran Matt Cullen said, laughing. ... When the ice [on one rink] got chewed up, the players stepped off and walked to the next sheet over to continue. That's when Coach Marla "waltzed straight out to the middle of the ice and told us all to get off," [Justin Falk], the locked-out Wild defenseman, said, laughing. "We have a tough enough time getting on the ice as it is, let alone having a figure skater kick us off."

So the rink the players were on, the ice got "chewed up"....so they went to the other rink, which I'm sure the figure skating coach's group also paid for their own ice time. Did the rink not have a zamboni handy? You'd imagine the players would think of this themselves.....
