As we know by now, this will be the last season that the Senators will be in Binghamton before they go to Belleville.

But before we say goodbye, there is a lot of hockey to be played. Also many promotions, some old favorites and some new ones as well.

The Sens will play a preseason game this Saturday (10/8) against Rochester at Floyd L. Maines Veterans Memorial Arena. Opening night is next Saturday, October 15th against Hershey. Magnet Schedules will be handed out. Get one for work and for home.

Here are some of our favorites. Military Appreciation Weekend on November 11th and 12th. Word of Life on November 18th, this night usually sells out so get your tickets early. Teddy Bear Toss on December 10th.

You can end 2016 with the B-Sens and their New Year’s Eve Game.  2017 will have many promotions including Hockey Weekend Across America on February 24th and 25th.

Some people have asked me if DIFD will be back, now that coach Luke Richardson is gone from the Senators. Great news is is back. Power to the Purple - DIFD is on February 25th.

Binghamton Zoo Night is April 7th. Faceoff Against Cancer to benefit American Cancer Society will be on April 8th.

Here are some new promotional nights. Miracles on Ice Night to benefit local charities and non-profits on October 22nd. (October 22), National Donut Day with Dunkin Donuts on November 5th.

S.T.A.C Night of Champions will be December 10th and March 25th. Post-Christmas Coat Drive on December 26th and Girl Scout Cookie Madness on March 11th.

If you are like my daughters, Riley and Tara, you want to know when the postgame skates are. Riley really wants to know when the postgame skate with the players is.

There will be seven: October 22nd, November 12th, December 10th, January 14th, February 18th, March 5th (with B-Sens players) and April 8th.

The players will be signing autographs following the game on November 26th. To see the entire promotional schedule, go here.

I'll be doing Chuck-a-Puck again this season so I can't wait to see ya at the games. LET'S GO SENS!
