Four-Game Rivalry Homestand Continues this Weekend

Come represent Silvertip Country at Comcast Arena over the next week as the Silvertips welcome the entire U.S. Division to continue a four-game homestand, featuring a variety of giveaways and promotions!

Despite out- chancing the Memorial Cup champs, the Silvertips fell to the Spokane Chiefs Wednesday evening in a hard- hitting game at Comcast Arena. Everett will look to continue their playoff push against several other strong teams over the upcoming week.

The Thunderbirds make the trip up from Kent on Friday, February 13th as Silvertips fans will have one last look at their I-5 rivals from down south in the teams' last meeting in Everett this season. Judd and Black is proud to present another Super Friday, where one lucky fan will return home with a special electronics package.

The Tri-City Americans return to Comcast Arena for a special Valentine's Day celebration at Comcast Arena on Saturday, February 14th. The Silvertips have played well against their rivals from the Columbia Basin this season, so expect another fierce, hard hitting game when the Americans return to town next Saturday.

Following next weekend, the Portland Winter Hawks visit Comcast Arena on Wednesday, February 18th looking for their first victory in Everett since October, 2007. The 7:05 pm contest marks the final time Portland visits Everett in the 2008-09 season.

Mark your calendars for another four-game homestand from February 21st- 28th as the Silvertips will be hosting the rival Vancouver Giants twice as well as the Kelowna Rockets and Tri-City Americans. Tickets for all games can be purchased by calling the Silvertips' front office at (425) 252-5100.

Hockey In Heels 2009 - Tuesday, February 17th

Hey, Ladies!

Want to improve your overall hockey acumen while chatting with the players and coming away with a free lower level ticket voucher? You'll want to attend our annual Hockey In Heels evening, featuring chats with Head Coach John Becanic as he breaks down particular aspects of the game we know and love. There will be a question and answer session as well as autograph tables for you to spend valuable time with Coach B and several of the 'Tips.

This is the perfect time for all of the hockey-crazed ladies in Snohomish County to get inside information on this year's Silvertips team while chatting with the players about their experiences in Everett, their take on WHL rules/infractions and the fierce U.S. Division rivalries.

This event has a limited amount of spots and will fill up. Each person that attends will receive a gift bag including a voucher for a free lower level ticket, and will be entered to win fabulous door prizes.

The event will be held at the Holiday Inn - Downtown Everett at 6 pm on Tuesday, February 17th.

Space is limited, and tickets have been selling quickly. For questions, or to reserve your spot, please call Devon Wold at (425) 609-2804.

Tri-City Americans Offering Silvertips Fans Ticket Discounts

Because we've seen a variety of Americans jerseys in the crowd at Comcast Arena and have heard cowbells ringing throughout the year at the Toyota Center, the Everett Silvertips and Tri- City Americans are partnering up to offer fans of the opposing teams a major discount on tickets purchased to road games.

For Silvertips fans traveling to Kennewick for the game at the Toyota Center on Friday, February 20th, tickets that are ordinarily $20 will be marked down to just $13. To take advantage of this special offer, tickets need to be ordered directly from Amy Bewlay within the Americans' front office by calling (509) 737-3772 or via email at abewlay@amshockey.com.

We know the Tri-City fans will be heading west when the rivalry resumes on Saturday in Everett, so we hope to see a ton of green and white in the Toyota Center stands when the 'Tips take on the Ams on February 20th!
