Kelowna Rockets News Release


The Kelowna Rockets are pleased to announce its 2010-11 Western Hockey League schedule featuring for the first time ever a New Year's Eve game at Prospera Place in Kelowna.

The Rockets will host the Spokane Chiefs at 7 p.m on December 31, 2010 allowing fans to ring in 2011 with the WHL team for the first time in its history. The Rockets will also play a pair of Thursday night games, marking the first time the club has played a regular season Thursday game.

"We wanted to change things up a bit for our fans," said Kelowna Rockets president and general manager Bruce Hamilton. "We're very excited about our schedule. We think it's spread out. I think we addressed some travel issues where we are playing some double headers and making some road swings that I felt was very important for our hockey team."

The Rockets open the new WHL season Sept. 25th at Prospera Place against the Prince George Cougars.

Of the team's 36 home games, 20 will be played on either a Friday or Saturday night, 10 will be played on Wednesdays while four will be played on Tuesday nights and two games will be played on Thursdays.
