Admirals Host Rockford on Friday
February 3, 2011 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Milwaukee Admirals News Release
Milwaukee, WI-The Milwaukee Admirals return from the All-Star Break refreshed (hopefully) and ready to go for a pair of games this weekend, beginning with a home contest on Friday, February 4th at 7:00 pm versus the Rockford IceHogs.
The first 5,000 fans through the gates will receive a bobblehead of Admirals center and University of Wisconsin alum Blake Geoffrion, courtesy of Lee Jeans. Geoffrion, who is the reigning Hobey Baker Award winner, was also selected as the Reebok/AHL Player of the Week this week.
In addition, the UW Marching Band will make their annual visit to the Bradley Center, thanks to Reinhart Partners. The band will play in the stands while the game is played and then make their way down to the ice to perform a special "Fourth Period" after the contest is done.
The Admirals will also be wearing special red jerseys for the game that will be auctioned off via silent auction with the proceeds going to the Admirals Power Play Foundation. Bids for the jerseys can be placed in the west atrium beginning when doors open at 6:00 pm and will conclude with five minutes remaining in the second intermission. Winning bidders will have the opportunity to take their jersey home that night and meet the player who wore it. Fans may also place bids online at milwaukeeadmirals.com until noon (CT) on Friday.
