Spokane Chiefs News Release


The Spokane Chiefs have announced that a game worn Tyler Johnson Chiefs' jersey will be a part of their silent auction at Saturday night's Coeur d'Alene Casino's House of Fury Buck Night to help benefit Chiefs Care. Johnson finished his fourth season as a Chief last year as one of the all-time leading scorers and was named the Western Conference Player of the Year in 2011. He is currently playing for the Norfolk Admirals, the American Hockey League affiliate of the NHL's Tampa Bay Lightning.

Other items in the silent auction include game used memorabilia, a framed and signed Chris Bruton Memorial Cup photo, a framed Michael Grabner signed Chiefs' picture and puck and a replica jersey signed by the 2011-12 Chiefs.

All proceeds from the auction will go to benefit Chiefs Care which is committed to helping raise money for the continuing education of Chiefs' players as well as serving the Spokane community through donations and appearances.

The Chiefs will host host Tri-City for the first time since November 5th in their sixth meeting of the year on Coeur d'Alene Casino's House of Fury Buck Night. Fans will have the chance to win prizes from Coeur d'Alene Casino by entering into the ring during intermissions while everyone in attendance will enjoy $1 hot dogs, Coca-Cola products and popcorn all night long.
