By Michael Caples –
Who said it’s too early to start looking at next year’s schedule?
Just eight days after they captured the Calder Cup for the first time in franchise history, the Grand Rapids Griffins revealed a first look at their 2013-14 season – including information about their outdoor game as part of the Hockeytown Winter Festival.
The now-defending AHL champions will hold their home opener – and a pre-game ceremony to unveil the first championship banner for the city of Grand Rapids – on Friday, Oct. 18.
The Griffins will host the Toronto Marlies on Monday, Dec. 30 at Comerica Park, as part of the 2013 Hockeytown Winter Festival, which also includes NHL alumni, junior, college, high school and youth contests leading up to the 2014 NHL Winter Classic at Michigan Stadium.
Other home dates confirmed by the American Hockey League include the Griffins’ 13th annual Matinee Game on Wednesday, Nov. 6, their 17th annual New Year’s Eve game on Tuesday, Dec. 31, a pair of Saturday games (Dec. 14 and Jan. 11) and a Friday contest on Jan. 31.
Opponents for those games, along with a complete 2013-14 AHL schedule, will be released later this summer.
