is it my imagination?

but do the players have trouble with slipping on the Bridgestone floor? Not just our game but all the games I've watched player slippery footing seems out of normal.
I noticed the same thing. Butler slipped three or four times yesterday, many times without being provoked whatsoever
 
It’s a hockey rink primarily. Wouldn’t surprise me if they have moisture issues from time to time on these courts.
Correct. Condensation issue. They keep the air conditioning turned up to correct this. Downside is that if you have upper level seats under the vents you need a jacket in the place at times.
 
Maybe...not impossible, but not very likely that the floor is an issue. If it is...it'll be WET tonight and/or tomorrow, with the weather that's forecasted. Maybe even "unplayable."

I've seen a lot of games on that floor and I'm gonna say...not the floor.

With as warm as it is outside today I don’t think folks will mind. 😆

As others have said, it's likely a condensation issue from the big ole slab of ice under the court.

We had this issue at Rupp a few times when the Thoroblades were a thing.
