Kalamazoo Wings News Release
KALAMAZOO- For the third time this week a member of the Kalamazoo Wings is heading to the American Hockey League to the play for the Utica Comets. Earlier today the Vancouver Canucks reassigned defenseman Jeremie Blain to the Comets.
Blain has recorded two points (1 goal, 1 assists) in six games this season with the K-Wings.
With being reassigned to the Comets, Blain becomes the sixth member of the K-Wings this season to either be called-up or loaned to an AHL team.
The K-Wings will remain at home tonight, Friday, November 14th for a 7:30 p.m. face-off versus the Reading Royals on Zoetis Night. Every fan that comes to the game will receive a K-Wings Koozie courtesy of Zoetis. This evening's game will be a 3, 2, 1 Countdown to Fun featuring $3 beers, $2 Pepsi products and $1 hot dogs courtesy of Winter's Sausage. The K-Wings will continue the economically friendly 3, 2, 1 Countdown to Fun promotion during every Friday home game during the regular season.
The five-game home stand for the K-Wings will conclude tomorrow, Saturday, November 15th with another 7:30 p.m. encounter against the Royals. Saturday will be the 2nd Annual Bell's Blue Ice Game, featuring Bell's Winter White Ale.
