Thunderwolves Inc. is very happy to announce that the Manitoba Moose and the expansion Toronto Roadrunners are coming to Thunder Bay! The two American Hockey League teams will be playing at Fort William Gardens in Thunder Bay on Oct. 3rd and 4th. The two teams will be rivals in the newNorth Division of the AHL, so this exciting exhibition series will act a great tune-up for the upcoming season.

Manitoba, Vancouver's AHL team, is coming off a great playoff run last season while the Roadrunners will be playing their first and second games as a hockey club in Thunder Bay. The Roadrunners officially joined the league on February 13, 2003 and are the AHL affiliate of the Edmonton Oilers.

The series is being presented by Thunderwolves Inc to promote high level hockey in Thunder Bay and to thank all the great Lakehead Thunderwolves fans for their incredible support over the last two seasons of Thunderwolves hockey in Thunder Bay. This is the second year in a row that the Moose will be playing in Thunder Bay, following last years inaugural exhibition series against the St. Johns Maple Leafs.

Ticket Prices are 20 dollars per single game, and 36 dollars for a series pass for adults, and 10 dollars per game for children or 20 dollars for a series pass. Seating will be an all-seat arrangement and game times will be 7:30 both nights. Tickets will go on sale September 1st.
