Two teams with the most historic rivalry in the AIHL will match up this Saturday night May 15th at the LCC Sports Complex. The BANQ Ice Dogs take on the Penrith Bears on home turf with the puck set to drop at 5pm. The Bears are coming off a tough Melbourne Adelaide road trip and are looking for redemption as the BANQ Ice Dogs are hungry for their first win of the season. It is shaping up to be quite the ice hockey game. To heat things up even more the Bears have at least four ex-ice dogs in their line up looking to show up their old team with the Dogs sure to make them pay the price.

For the Sydney ice hockey community it is a chance to see some of the new recruits on the Ice Dogs such as their highest profile signing in club history Derek Campbell and the nifty addition of import Andrew DeCristoforo. The Bears have also injected some serious talent in Eric Begin, Vlad Pelikovsky and Mical Lauko and have the solid and talented Micheal Schlamp back on the squad after a years break.

Pups Club kids that show up to the game will receive a free player poster to hang on their wall and the game is proudly sponsored by EA Sports NHL 10 who have donated the video game as the prize that is to be raffled off! The Ice Dogs are also having a Home Opener Jersey Clearance sale, with pre-warn Ice Dogs Jerseys on sale for as low as $15 a jersey, but only available at either of the Ice Dogs home games this weekend.

It is all happening this Saturday May 15th at the LCC Sports Complex at 5pm, so don't miss out as the AIHL season is finally underway and in full swing! For more information see www.icedogs.com.au
