Alaska Aces Hockey

Aces fans will learn soon who’s playing in the Alaska Aces alumni game

Save the date, Aces fans. The rosters for the Alaska Aces alumni hockey games will be announced at a “roster release party” on Friday, Oct. 4.

Some former Aces are expected to be at Matanuska Brewing Co. in Midtown Anchorage for the event, which runs from 6-9 p.m.

Players from the once-mighty ECHL team that folded at the end of the 2016-17 season will square off in the two-game exhibition series Nov. 8-9 at Sullivan Arena.

Saturday’s game is standing-room-only but there are still seats available for the Friday game. Both games begin at 7:15 p.m.

“We are going to be donating a portion of the proceeds from ticket sales on Friday night to the Salvation Army fire relief fund to help those affected by the McKinley Fire," said Louis Imbriani, one of the event’s organizers.
