The Saint John Sea Dogs website is reporting Two Special Events for Fans that will provide two unique opportunities to interact with players in the coming week.
Players will be on hand to sign books and other memorabilia at the Sea Dog Styles store in Harbour Station Saturday from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. as the store hosts a one-day Memorial Cup Merchandise Blowout. From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, the store will be offering two special deals on Memorial Cup souvenirs.
Fans purchasing a copy of the book Hockey Heaven: A Look Inside the Saint John Sea Dogs, 2011 Memorial Cup champions, will receive a free upper-bowl ticket to Sunday’s game against the Blainville-Boisbriand Armada. Fans can also receive a free ticket by purchasing the book as part of a package, along with a Memorial Cup Champions T-shirt and puck. A $100 value, this package will be available Saturday for just $77.11 (plus tax) in recognition of the team’s 77-11 overall record last season. The book alone retails for $58 in recognition of the team tying the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League record with 58 wins.
A variety of players from the defending Memorial Cup champions will be available to sign items purchased Saturday, and fans are welcome to bring other previously purchased merchandise as well.
“The support for the Hockey Heaven book has been overwhelming, and just goes to show how much the Memorial Cup means to our fans and the Saint John region as a whole,” said Sea Dogs President Wayne Long. “Fans pre-ordered the book by the hundreds and they’ve been looking forward to getting it signed by the players who brought this championship to Saint John. This is a chance for them to do that, as well as a chance for fans to get a copy of the book at an incredible value before they’re all gone.”
In addition, Sea Dogs players will be at the new BMO branch at 45 Hubert Street Monday from 5 to 7 p.m. As part of the bank’s grand opening, and to showcase its new sponsorship of the Canadian Hockey League, the branch is hosting an “Ultimate Fan” competition.
The first 100 people to register on site will be entered in a trivia contest to prove who knows their favourite junior hockey team the best. The winner will be entered into a draw, along with winners from 40 other communities, to win a grand prize of a trip for two to the 2012 MasterCard Memorial Cup in Shawinigan, Que.
Thursday night the Sea Dogs will face the Moncton Wildcats in the next instalment of the Brunswick News Rivalry Cup at 7 p.m. The Sea Dogs are hoping for a second straight sellout as upper-bowl tickets are just $10. In addition, the Sea Dogs are accepting donations in partnership with Aeropostale for the fifth annual Teens For Jeans campaign. Fans can donate any brand or size of gently worn jeans, which will be given to local charities that serve homeless teens. Fans making a donation will receive a coupon for 25 per cent off a pair of new Aero jeans at Aeropostale, and a chance to win a pair of Aero jeans signed by the Sea Dogs.
