Friday, Nov. 24 vs. Binghamton, 7:30 p.m. After winning twice in Broome County, N.Y., the Sound Tigers will try to make it three-for-three against the East Division-rival Senators.

Albany, the long-time New Jersey Devils' top farm team, is currently affiliated with the Colorado Avalanche and defending Stanley Cup champion Carolina Hurricanes.

Autographs after the games! Sound Tiger players are on hand after games to sign pictures, posters, jerseys and other memorabilia, behind Section 103.
