Gwinnett Gladiators Return to the Ice This Weekend

The Gwinnett Gladiators will return for the 2013-14 season.

Another Gwinnett tradition -- hockey, yes, hockey -- returns this weekend.

The Gwinnett Gladiators will open their 2013-14 season Friday (Oct. 18) at the Gwinnett Arena. And this year, the team that has won back-to-back South Division titles in the East Coast Hockey League has a new coach, Rick Emmett (see attached video.)

Friday's opening foe will be the Greenville Road Warriors. The puck drops at 7:05 p.m.

The Gladiators are affiliated with the Phoenix Coyotes of the National Hockey League.

As before the team will have various promotions throughout the season. For more information, check the team website.
