Falcons Postpone January 7th Home Game
January 6, 2009 - American Hockey League (AHL)
Springfield Falcons News Release
Springfield, MA - The Springfield Falcons, proud members of the American Hockey League, announced today that they have postponed their home game set for Wednesday, January 7, 2009 against the Binghamton Senators due to the impending winter storm predicted for Wednesday in Springfield. The game has been re-scheduled to be played on Sunday, February 8, 2009 starting at 5 pm. Tickets from the January 7 game can be used on February 8.
"The decision to postpone had to be made today because Binghamton was planning on traveling into Springfield this afternoon," said Falcons president and general manager Bruce Landon. "We had to make a decision before they left for the trip. Due to the possibility of an ice storm we did not want to put our employees, MassMutual Center employees, players and fans at risk if they had to travel in very bad conditions. We appreciate the support of the Binghamton Senators in agreeing to this schedule change."
The Falcons' next home game is now set for Friday, January 9, 2009 when they host the Hartford Wolf Pack at the MassMutual Center starting at 7:30 pm.
