Lethbridge Hurricanes News Release


Lethbridge, AB - The Lethbridge Hurricanes are excited to announce the sale of tickets for their only home preseason date of the 2010-11 season. On Tuesday, September 14th the Lethbridge Hurricanes will play host to rookie standout Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Coaldale local Adam Kambeitz as the Red Deer Rebels come to town for a Preseason match up. This will be your only chance to see the brand new Lethbridge Hurricanes during the preseason on home ice.

This young Canes lineup will be fresh off their preseason tournament in Kennewick, WA and will undoubtedly be excited to be back in the 'Bridge' to play in front of the home town crowd. The hockey club is proud to host this game off site on the west side - the home of the CIS University of Lethbridge Pronghorns. With several former Hurricanes players taking advantage of their WHL Scholarship and choosing to play at the U of L, the Canes will be donating the proceeds of the 50/50 raffle to U of L Hockey.

"Though we would love to be able to host this event in our own building, this is a great opportunity for us to play in the home of the Lethbridge Pronghorns" said Canes Business Manager Jim Bradley "The WHL Scholarship program is second to none and having several of our alumni returning to this city to continue their schooling is a testament to the U of L - their program as well as the Lethbridge Community. This is a great opportunity for us to once again give back to them as well as our fans"

Tickets are priced at $8 (includes GST) and are available for purchase only through the Hurricanes office located in the west parking lot of the ENMAX Centre. Doors open at 6:00 PM for this rush seating event while puck drop is 7:00 PM at Nicholas Sheran Arena (401 Laval Blvd. West). With limited seating the Hurricanes encourage everyone to purchase their tickets early by contacting OJ or Dawna in the Hurricanes office at 403 328 1986.
