"Fast-paced hockey, character meet-and-greets for the family, theme night giveaways and more were the backbone of Sound Tigers' home dates this past season and we're confident the 2018-19 campaign will be even better," President Michael Picker said. "With flexible ticket packages and new theme nights that will be announced this summer, there is no better time to become part of the Sound Tigers family."

- Saturday, Nov. 10
- Saturday, Dec. 1

In addition, Sound Tigers season tickets and flex plans are on sale now for the 2018-19 campaign, offering the greatest savings and ultimate flexibility of all ticket packages.
