Lions ready to launch second season light on veterans

The Lions de Trois-Rivières, the ECHL affiliate of the Montreal Canadiens, open their second season Friday night at the Colisée Vidéotron, as they face the Maine Mariners.

The game can be seen on TVA Sports and FloHockey, and heard on 106.9FM Mauricie starting at 7:00 p.m.

The Lions book-ended their inaugural season with the largest crowds of the season, drawing a standing-room-only sellout of 4,500 fans for their opener against the Newfoundland Growlers, and 4,200 for their final regular season game, against the Worcester Railers. Overall they averaged 3,100 fans in the 4,390 seat arena.
