Tickets will go on sale to the general public at 10:00 a.m. on June 24 and will range in price from $20 to $50, the Crunch said.
And Saturday won’t be the only day with activities surrounding this event, Howard Dolgon, owner of the Syracuse Crunch, said in his remarks during the afternoon news conference in the Carrier Dome.
“We plan on [that] Friday to have a celebration of hockey in New York state … to have as many youth hockey players participate and enjoy the comforts of the Carrier Dome and ice hockey in the Dome,” said Dolgon.
It’s not the first time the Crunch has hosted a hockey matchup outside the Onondaga County War Memorial, its regular home venue.
The Crunch in 2010 played the Binghamton Senators in the Mirabito Outdoor Classic at the New York State Fairgrounds.
