THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 24 – THANKSGIVING
Giving Thanks & Scoring Goals | Soo Greyhounds @ Erie Otters | November 24, 2022 – 7 P.M.
AROUND THE ARENA
A REASON TO BE THANKFUL |
PLENTY TO SAY THANKS FOR |
SOO, WE MEET AGAIN |
| For the 47th year in NWPA, hockey fans get to indulge their Thanksgiving Feast with a night of hockey. As engrained into Thanksgiving tradition of Erieites as Turkey, Stuffing, and Mashed Potatoes, generations of hockey fans have spent their Turkey Day full of turkey and goals. | For the Erie Otters, the Thanksgiving Game has been a tradition that’s carried on since their first season in 1996. The team is truly thankful to be part of so many families’ holiday tradition. | For the second-straight Thanksgiving, the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds’ lone trip to Erie comes on American Thanksgiving. Last season, the Otters score five-unanswered enroute to a stunning win to send the turkey-stuffed fans home happy. |
COVER ME UP |
FAN-TASTIC SAVINGS! |
JERSEY GIANTS |
| Give More, Get More! As a part of our continued community-holiday initiatives, fans will have the chance to ‘enter to win’ a team-made, team-signed Tie Blanket. Each entry is $5, with all proceeds going to benefit Community Shelter Services. | Season Ticket Members, we’re thankful for YOU! On Thanksgiving Night, all STMs in attendance will receive 30 Percent off at the Otters’ Den Team Store. It’s never too early (or too late!) for holiday gift shopping. | Make sure you stop by the Harrell Automotive Fan Assistance Center to enter our Jersey Raffle at the game! Thursday’s jersey raffle will feature two winners, with their choices of Kurtis Henry or current Soo Greyhound / former Erie Otter Ryan Thompson. |
