Tickets to all 34 home games for the Sea Dogs’ sixth season go on sale tomorrow morning at 10:00 am at the Harbour Station Box Office.
The action kicks off on Friday, September 10 at 7:30 pm at Harbour Station when the PEI Rocket visit Saint John for the Dogs’ Home Opener. Along with all of the usual stuff a Home Opener brings, the Sea Dogs will also have a special pre-game celebration.
The team will raise their 2009-10 Atlantic Division and Regular Season championship banners to the rafters of Harbour Station, making it the first banner raising in team history. There is no word on where exactly the banners will be hung inside the arena.
The first 5,000 fans will also receive a free Sea Dogs banner magnet compliments of founding partners Irving Oil and Moosehead Breweries.
Last year, the Sea Dogs sold $5 tickets for each Wednesday home game in recognition of the team’s fifth anniversary. This season, Wednesday night upper bowl tickets will be sold for $6 in recognition of the clubs half-dozen years in the Port City. There are two Wednesday night home matches.
The annual Sea Dogs Fan Fest will take place on September 11 from 4-6pm at the West Entrance of Harbour Station prior to their game against the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles. The event has featured music, face painting, cake, and a BBQ in the past.
Other theme nights include Toonie Tuesday, Pink in the Rink, Support Our Troops Night, Multicultural Day, Holiday Fun Day, Journée Des Francofans, Valentine’s Day game, Country Night, and a St. Patrick’s Day Celebration.
Also of note, the Sea Dogs will host a Saint John Flames Tribute Night to celebrate the former American Hockey League team’s 2001 Calder Cup Championship. Like the team did in 2008-09 to honor the Saint John Mooseheads, the Sea Dogs will wear retro jerseys.
"I believe it's going to be a special night for the players and all the fans," said former Flames co-owner Nick Georgoudis to the Telegraph-Journal. "I'm sure some people still remember (the Calder Cup championship) and will always remember. I'm looking forward to remembering the old times and good memories. We had 10 great seasons with the Flames."
