General Motors Place, or “the Garage” as it’s come to be known by local hockey fans, will be getting a new name after 15 years.
The Vancouver Canucks and General Motors of Canada have agreed on a new sponsorship deal which didn’t include naming rights for the arena.
The Canucks have announced the new name as Rogers Arena, in partnership with Rogers Communications.
