Reading Royals News Release


Reading, PA - The Reading Royals of the ECHL, affiliate of the Los Angeles Kings of the National Hockey League and the Manchester Monarchs of the American Hockey League, today announced that the organization has signed right wing Chris Greene to an ECHL contract. A twenty-year old native of Mesina, New York, Greene (6'4/181) played the last two seasons with the Erie Otters of the Ontario Hockey League. The 2004-05 team rookie of the year, Greene scored twelve goals and picked up 24 assists (36 points) and 160 penalty minutes this year with the Otters. It is expected that Greene, who attended the 2005 training camp of the Ottawa Senators, will be in uniform for the Royals tonight when Reading takes on the Wheeling Nailers at the Sovereign Center, at which the first 2500 fans through the turnstiles will receive a Royals' poster courtesy of the Reading Eagle.

The Royals are back at home for a pair of games this weekend. On Friday, the Johnstown Chiefs make their final regular season visit to the Sovereign Center (7:00 pm). On that night, the first 2500 fans will receive hockey boom sticks courtesy of IMMIX Wireless. Also, after the game, Christian rap star Pigeon John will perform a free concert for all in attendance at this Faith & Family night game. On Saturday, the "Drive to A Million Brought To You By Commerce Bank" will arrive at the Sovereign Center, when the Royals take on the Trenton Titans (7:00 pm) and will honor the team's one-millionth fan to pass through the Sovereign Center turnstiles, hosting a celebration that befits this historic milestone. Please note that, on that night, the Main Gate (Seventh & Penn Street) will be the only gate open until the one-millionth fan is actually identified after which all other entrances will be opened. The Main Gate will open at 5:30 pm to all ticketed fans that night. Royals' game day broadcasts can be heard on ESPN Radio 1240 am in Ephrata and on the internet at www.royalshockey.com with pre-game beginning 30 minutes before the opening face-off. Streaming video is also available through the Royals' website on a pay per view basis provided by B2 Networks.
