I understand the ice is inside, but surely it would hold up firmer in Calgary where it wouldn't be uncommon to see -15C nights, how would this then Affect the game play?

Ice quality is better in Canada, but not as much as you think. It will impact speedy players and favor slow/grinding teams. The advantage is so small it's not worth adding into a capping equation.
