Its warmer and humid. Makes the top of the ice melt much quicker, in a addition to all of the skating. Thin layers of water form on top as puddles, and as soon as the puck hits that spot it acts like glue. Makes puck handling very difficult. The heat in general makes the puck bounce more and harder to control.

Then again, it does make sense that the larger surface area means more heat from the outside. Idk much about hockey rinks either way though.

Counterintuitive to me. You'd think the larger arenas would have better technology/more money to resolve problems like the weather outside.
