Maine Mariners News Release
The Maine Mariners, proud affiliates of the NHL's Boston Bruins and AHL's Providence Bruins, are on home ice this weekend, hosting the South Division's Orlando Solar Bears for a pair of games at the Cross Insurance Arena. On Friday, the Mariners tune-up for the upcoming Olympic Winter Games with "Winter Olympics Night" and on Saturday it's a celebration of Maine with "207 Night."
Friday's game begins at 7:15 PM and is "Winter Olympics Night" presented by LL Bean. The first 500 fans through the door will receive a Mariners scarf. Prior to the game, a "Try Hockey for Free" event will be held on the ice from 3-4:30, in partnership with USA Hockey.
Saturday's "207 Night" presented by Live + Work in Maine is a 6 PM puck drop and will feature specialty jerseys, inspired by imagery of the state of Maine. The jerseys will be auctioned via DASH, beginning on Saturday morning and closing around 7:30 PM. The first 500 fans will also receive a Maine pennant, courtesy of Live + Work in Maine. Only limited tickets are available for Saturday's game.

They'll head on an eight-game road trip after this weekend, not returning home until March 1st.
