The building was updated in the summer of 2013 with new seating, new board and glass system, along with a new ice plant which modified the ice surface lay-out from 200 X 100 to 200 by 87. In 2015, the Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center truly became the home for Minnesota State Hockey with both the men's and women's programs moving full-time to new facilities built on the west side of the building. Besides locker room facilities and offices, the two-story build-out also includes a new weight room, athletic training and equipment facilities, player and alumni lounge areas. A new four-sided Daktronics video scoreboard also came online in the fall of 2015.
