Portland Winterhawks News Release


Saturday night will be a profitable night for several lucky Winter Hawks fans.

First, the team is expecting the seven millionth fan of all-time to pass through the turnstiles before the game. The lucky fan will win a number of exciting, once-in-a-lifetime prizes, including season tickets for the 2009-10 Winter Hawks season, a team autographed stick and the opportunity to drop the puck in a ceremonial faceoff before the game.

In addition, they win a spot in Dash For Cash in the second intermission. But even if you're not the seven millionth fan, you can still get in on the action. Fans can sign up before the game to win a spot in the contest and have their chance to collect as many silver dollars as they can in one minute.
