"Hockey season is right around the corner and our fans have been anxiously awaiting the release of our schedule," said Chris Porreca, Executive Vice President. "We are extremely excited to bring Phantoms fans our full schedule today and especially thrilled that most of our games will take place on weekends and holidays."
