Attack Gear Up for Two-Game Weekend
OWEN SOUND, ONT – The Owen Sound Attack are set for a busy weekend, beginning with a road matchup against the Guelph Storm on Friday night before returning home Saturday to host the Kitchener Rangers for their annual Hockey Fights Cancer game at the Harry Lumely Bayshore Community Center.
FRIDAY
The Attack will travel to Guelph on Friday night to take on the Storm at the Sleeman Center. Guelph enters the matchup riding a four-game winning streak, while Owen Sound will be looking to turn the tide and earn an important win on the road. Through their previous meetings, Guelph has walked away with four victories, making Friday another opportunity for Owen Sound to change the trend. The Attack will need a strong effort from both ends to slow down the Storm’s offence and put an end to their recent success. With two important matchups this weekend, Owen Sound will look to start off on a high note.
SATURDAY HOCKEY FIGHTS CANCER NIGHT
The Attack will then return home Saturday to welcome the Kitchener Rangers for their annual Hockey Fights Cancer game. The evening will feature a variety of fundraising initiatives in support of the Canadian Cancer Society’s Wheels of Hope program, including a bucket pass during the first period (fans are encouraged to bring cash), a chuck-a-puck during the second intermission and a silent auction, along with additional fundraising opportunities available on the concourse throughout the game. Following the final buzzer, fans will have the chance to participate in a special game worn jersey auction.
The players will take the ice wearing special Hockey Fights Cancer jerseys, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Owen Sound Attack’s partnership with the Canadian Cancer Society in support of the local Wheels of Hope program. Fans are encouraged to come out, show their support and help make a difference in the community.
