Saginaw to also play PINK OUT game

The Saginaw Spirit are proud to partner with National City Bank and the St. Mary's of Michigan Seton Cancer Institute for the second annual 'PINK OUT,' a game being played in support of breast cancer awareness.

The 'PINK OUT' game will take place on Saturday when the Spirit take on the Niagara IceDogs at 7:11 p.m. at TheDow Event Center in Saginaw.

Breast cancer survivors from the mid-Michigan region will be participating in a ceremonial puck drop starting off the night's activities. The first 5,000 fans will receive a free pink rally towel, courtesy of National City Bank and the St. Mary's of Michigan Seton Cancer Institute.

The Spirit team will hit the ice wearing a limited edition pink Spirit jersey, which will be auctioned off in a silent auction taking place during the game to raise funds in support of breast cancer awareness.

There will also be post-game Skate with the Players event where the jerseys worn by Adam Comrie, T.J. Brodie and Nick Crawford during the 'PINK OUT' will be auctioned off live.
