"We're happy to partner with the Vancouver Canucks for this initiative," said Giants President, Governor and Majority Owner, Ron Toigo. "We're looking forward the opportunity of showcasing our world-class product in the largest hockey facility in British Columbia."
Toigo adds, "Teddy Bear Toss has always been one of our marquee events, and hosting the event this year at Rogers Arena will only add to the excitement and mystique of the game."
"We're proud to host the Vancouver Giants at Rogers Arena," said Trent Carroll, Chief Operating Officer, Canucks Sports & Entertainment. "Hockey fans look forward to the Teddy Bear Toss game every year. It's an important tradition and we're excited to take part in it."
Fans who attend the December 8th Teddy Bear Toss game are encouraged to bring brand new stuffed toys with them. When the Giants score their first goal of the game, fans can then throw their stuffed toys onto the ice. All items will then be gathered and donated to local children's charities.
