Thunderbirds Announce Climate Pledge Arena Game
KENT, Wash. – Seattle Thunderbirds announced today that their game against the Portland Winterhawks on March 17th will be at Climate Pledge Arena, home of the Seattle Kraken and Seattle Storm. This will mark their third Battle on the Sound Game under the iconic roof in the heart of the Emerald City.
“We are extremely privileged to host the 3rd annual Battle on the Sound against our i5 rival the Portland Winterhawks at Climate Pledge Arena. The support we receive from Tod Leiweke and the entire Kraken Organization is tremendous and it all helps to continue to grow the game of hockey in the region” says Thunderbirds President Colin Campbell.
Climate Pledge Arena is a special place for the Thunderbirds, who first played under the roof when it was the Seattle Center Coliseum on October 7th 1989.
“We’re excited to have the great fans of the Seattle Thunderbirds back in our building for the 3rd time. As the hockey community grows in the Puget Sound, this game is an integral part of showcasing the sport,” says Climate Pledge Arena Executive Vice President and General Manager, Steve Mattson.
“It is a great opportunity for our guys to play at the Climate Pledge Arena. Our team has many young players that haven’t had this experience yet, and I know they will be really looking forward to the game. Playing against our rivals from Portland will bring additional energy to the event” says Thunderbirds Assistant General Manager Jared Crooks.
