In Russian, Schaiba refers to the game device in ice hockey, the puck . The arena was completed in 2013. The 2013 U18 Junior Ice Hockey World Championship and a four-country sledge ice hockey tournament were held in August and September 2013 as test competitions in the run-up to the Winter Olympics .
