The Rivermen are back on home ice for one game only this week as they host the Huntsville Havoc on Friday, December 6 at Carver Arena at 7:15 pm. The Rivermen will be hosting a teddy bear toss night where fans can toss stuffed animals onto the ice after Peoria's first goal. The stuffed animals will then be collected and donated to children in the Peoria area during the holiday season.
