It’s possible, but can you provide any evidence of this theory? I’ve been watching nhl for 30 years, and yes some rinks have shitty ice and some rinks are known for having good ice. I can’t imagine they do it on purpose to slow down another team, when every team in the league has fast players.

It's negated when I enter the rink, since I'm cool enough to harden the ice.

I think is a big factor there. I've also never heard of a team manipulating ice temp for an advantage.
