SYRACUSE, N.Y. - The Syracuse Crunch are holding their annual Movember game benefiting the Prostate Cancer Care and Research Fund at Upstate University Hospital when the team hosts the Toronto Marlies on Friday, Nov. 27 at 7 p.m.

During the Movember game, fans will have the opportunity to purchase signed mystery pucks for $10 at a table outside Guest Services.

All proceeds from the signed mystery pucks will benefit the Prostate Cancer Care and Research Fund at Upstate University Hospital.

The Movember game will also mark the end of the Syracuse Crunch Movember Mustache Challenge.

Proper management of prostate cancer requires more than the ability to perform an operation. It involves making informed judgments about a complex disease process-from diagnosis to performing active treatment in those who may be considered high-risk. Most importantly, it also includes avoiding unnecessary treatment.

Upstate's Prostate Cancer Team understands this-and so much more. They understand that having highly trained specialists utilizing the latest technology provides patients with the most up-to-date treatment options. They understand the importance of collaboration. That's why they work with the nation's foremost public research institutions that include close partnerships with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI). And it's why this team consists of professionals from a host of specialties-including urology, radiation oncology, medical oncology, pathology, surgery, radiology, social work, nursing and psychology-who coordinate care so each patient receives the care that's right for him, delivered by experts in each applied field. Among Upstate's Prostate experts are a group of outstanding, comprehensive, world class researchers studying molecular mechanisms and new treatments for prostate cancer.

Syracuse Crunch single game and season tickets are on sale now and can be purchased either in person at the Crunch Box Office located in the War Memorial at 800 South State Street in Syracuse or by calling the office at 315-473-4444.
