Red Card Sports Bar + Eatery Celebrates NHL Season Kick-Off

Hockey is Back

Red Card Sports Bar + Eatery is set to kick off the NHL season in signature style when the puck drops on Saturday, October 9th. With eighteen high-def screens, a glowing cocktail bar, delicious Italian-style pizzas and an impressive beer list, the stylish downtown eatery is the place to catch all the NHL action.

During the 2010-2011 hockey season, which runs until April 9th, Red Card Sports Bar + Eatery hopes to raise upwards of $5,000 to benefit the Canucks Autism Network (CAN). Two dollars from each $17 NHL charity pizza sold during the regular hockey season will be donated to CAN. Aptly named, the Hat Trick pizza is topped with spicy sausage, sopressata, bacon and mozzarella. Throughout the NHL season, Red Card will feature sleeves of Stanley Park 1897 Ale for $3.50.

At the Saturday October 9th season opener event, Red Card guests that arrive before the puck drops will have the chance to win two tickets to that evening’s Vancouver hockey game or an NHL jersey (draw at 6:30pm). With ongoing prizes every week (NHL jerseys, signed hockey sticks, Vancouver hockey tickets, gift certificates and more), a large grand prize package will be given away at the end of the season.

Founded in 2008, the Canucks Autism Network (CAN) delivers programs and services to children and families living with autism spectrum disorder in British Columbia. Its programs are inclusive, accessible and welcoming to people of all abilities.For more information visit: canucksautism.ca.
