There may be another surprise or two yet. Between ticket sales, auction and money raised already this event will certainly be worthy of the time and effort put into it.
Besides the dollar value and the money raised to help fight pancreatic cancer, we should never forget the personal side of why this is being held in the first place. To you Tom Jacobson and Becky Klem. Those that have a personal attachment to this event I think they will be impressed as well.

Teddy Bear Toss Night :: For those attending HASB I hope you consider contributing to this great event. It is an annual tradition in Rockford with all of the stuffed animals going to needy children locally.
Date: Saturday December 03, 2011
Time: 7:05 PM
It’s Teddy Bear Toss night as the IceHogs take on the Abbotsford Heat. Bring a stuffed animal to the game and throw it out on the ice after the IceHogs score their first goal. All the Teddy Bears will be collected and donated to local hospitals.
In addition, there is also a winter hat giveaway. The first 2,500 IceHogs fans through the doors will receive a winter hat, courtesy of Ferrellgas.

Important!
After the game we will have a private reception/ bar area set up between the games from 3:30 to 5:45 inside the BMO Harris Bank Centre. This area will have a cash bar and a meal will be provided for those playing hockey. We currently have food reserved (hot dogs, burgers, chips, potato salad, etc) for 50 people. The cost is $10 per person and we are asking that those that are playing and eating to make a donation to assist with the cost but it is not mandated from the players.
For those that would like to have family members/ friends to eat as well we MUST have the number of total meals by Tuesday. Please let us know if you are interested in doing so. The cost will be $10 per person as well and we ask that you pay for that. Please let us know the number of people you are reserving for and to make it easier for everyone that day you can just make a donation on Bob's page. Plus it becomes a tax deduction for you as well! Donations here http://www.firstgivi...rockfordicehogs
We welcome all of you attending the game to join us even if you are not eating. The cash bar will be open and there is plenty of space for everyone. It will be great to congregate with all of our friends for this great event between the games.

Who are those two assholes with the Hogs best defenseman who somehow was a healthy scratch last night?

Not even close to the best defenseman. Probably why he's been a healthy scratch two games in a row.

You should tell him that, Ron. He told us " I don't know why I'm not playing"
