About Today's Game: Tonight the Jacksonville Icemen will take a step back into the past to the 1995-2000 era of ECHL Hockey and play as the Jacksonville Lizard Kings. Jacksonville opened the new year with a dramatic 6-5 victory over the Swamp Rabbits in Greenville on Sunday. Captain Christopher Brown netted the game-winner early into overtime. Jacksonville opens a four-game homestand this evening and is 10-1-1 in its last 12 games.
