Alaska Aces News Release
Anchorage, AK; March 31, 2011 - The Alaska Aces are pleased to announce that they will host Games A & B of the Western Conference Semifinals on Friday, April 15th and Saturday, April 16th at 7:15pm at Sullivan Arena.

Individual tickets to the games will go on sale at 9am AKST on Friday morning, and are available at the Aces office, located at the corner of 15th Ave. and Gambell. Alaska's opponent in the Conference Semifinals has yet to be determined. Alaska will host the winner of the #4 vs. #5 Western Conference matchup in the opening round of the post-season. For more information, and the latest promotional news and updates, fans can visit the Aces at their Facebook page for more information, or call the Aces at 907.258.ACES.

The Aces are back in the post-season for the eighth consecutive time since joining the ECHL, and have secured their fourth conference championship.

With the opening-round bye, Alaska has made the second round of the playoffs for the seventh time in eight years.
The Aces will close the regular season with two more games in Victoria this weekend, before returning home in mid-April for Games 1 & 2 of the Western Conference Semifinals and the debut of the 2011 Kelly Cup Playoffs.
