EDMONTON, ALBERTA- The Edmonton Rush will raise the roof off Rexall Friday with a night guaranteed to rock as the team welcomes international TV host and cover girl Brooke Burke, a performance by Rock Star: INXS sweetheart Suzie McNeil and a pre-game St. Paddy's Day Party.

Brooke will co-host for the evening's events and will be reunited with Rock Star: INXS contestant Suzie McNeil who will perform at half time.
