Prince George Cougars News Release


Prince George, BC - The Prince George Cougars are excited to announce that they will close out the 2022-23 regular season with Retro Night and a Mega 50/50 with a guaranteed $30,000 Jackpot on Saturday, March 25th when they host the Kamloops Blazers.

In honour of fans past and present, the Cougars will be donning throwback jerseys that will bring back a lot of memories. The Cougars will be wearing the traditional White Jersey with the logo that was worn from 1996-2008. These special threads were made possible by one of the Cougars great partners in the Indigenous Policing Service.

"We asked our season members what jersey they wanted to see make a comeback and this was the overwhelming favourite," said Director of Business Taylor Dakers. "There's a bit of nostalgia just seeing these jerseys on the ice again but we're also going to be raffling these beautiful jerseys off to lucky fans at the end of the game."

Every fan that enters the building that night will receive a free ballot to put in for the draw.

Fans that attend the game will also get the opportunity to interact with Cougars players and a few alumni after the game during the CIBC Autograph Session on the Concourse. Fans can expect to see some former fan favourites like Eric Hunter, Nick Drazenovic, Ronald Petrovicky, and Ty Edmonds.

The Mega 50/50 Jackpot will be a $30,000 guaranteed prize, which will be benefitting the BC Cancer Foundation. Those funds will be going directly to Cancer research and treatment right here in Prince George benefitting Dr. Robert Olson's world-leading research in the field of precision radiation. The Cougars, Wood Wheaton Supercentre, and the BC Cancer Foundation have come together to make this Mega 50/50 possible.

PRD Construction and Wood Wheaton Supercentre have also pledged donations to bring Cancer Centre staff as well as Cancer survivors to the game.

"It's hard to wrap my head around how much is happening on March 25th, but I know it's going to be a lot of fun and we're going to raise a lot of money for a great cause. A night like this is only possible with great partners like the Indigenous Policing Service, Wood Wheaton Supercentre, PRD Construction, and Dave Mothus."

There are still great seats available, and you can secure yours at www.ticketsnorth.ca
