Hockey Day at Sahlen Field returns Saturday, Sept. 6, presented by LEGENDS, as the Buffalo Bisons have once again partnered with their good friends down the street, the Buffalo Sabres, for a fun-filled afternoon as the Herd takes on the Syracuse Mets at 1:05 p.m. Gates open at 11:30 a.m.
Lace up your sneakers, tape up your mitts and get to the ballpark for this “scary good” event that will feature the last three Sabres first round draft picks! Hockey Day at the ballpark will include a Zach Benson Ceremonial First Pitch as the Sabres forward joins the fun. Plus, the ballpark gates will open early at 11:30 a.m. for a Sabres Prospects Autograph Session from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. that will include forward Konsta Helenius and defenseman Radim Mrtka along with forwards Anton Wahlberg and Matteo Costantini! Fans will be allowed one signed item per player (no photos), and participating players are subject to change (Helenius/Wahlberg in Line A, Mrtka/Costantini in Line B).
The Bisons will once again wear their Black & Red Hockey Day jerseys during the game, and there will be lucky seat Ticket Giveaways to the Sabres Opening Night game against the Rangers on Oct. 9, just 17 days after the conclusion of the Bisons season. They’ll have a visit from Buster’s buddy, Sabretooth, as well as special pre-game activations from the Sabres.
