NEW KENSINGTON, — The brother of Mario Lemieux, Pittsburgh Penguins owner and NHL Hall of Famer, is part of a group buying a suburban ice rink complex that will include a hockey training academy.

The Alain Lemieux Hockey Academy will be housed at what is now the Valley Sports Complex in New Kensington.

A group headed by Andrew Virostek, who owns a deck hockey facility in Murrysville, is buying the complex from Allegheny Valley Bank. The complex, which includes two ice rinks and a gymnasium, has been in receivership since the bank sued the previous owners for nearly $4 million in debt.

The new owners, Pittsburgh Ice Arena LP, plan to close on the deal in September, but are already making improvements.
