Laval-New-Arena

(Canadian Press Broadcast Wire (Canada) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) LAVAL, Que. - The same people behind Montreal's Bell Centre arena are going to be managing a new sports complex to be built north of the city.

The City of Laval says entertainment promoter evenko will operate the arena and telecommunications giant Bell has secured the naming rights to the facility.

The building will be called Place Bell.

Laval's rink will be built for $120 million and is slated to open in 2014.


The cost of the facility will be split between the provincial and municipal governments as well as Evenko, an entertainment promoter tied to the Montreal Canadiens.

The City of Laval had hoped to build the facility using a private-public partnership, but says it had to change plans when it didn't find a proposal it deemed acceptable.
