08-09 Jackals Schedule released
Jackals to open season at home on October 17 vs. division rival Reading Royals. The Jackals will see three new opponents invade First Arena next season for the first time including the Augusta Lynx, Florida Everblades and the Idaho Steelheads. I have posted the complete Jackals 08-09 schedule here reflecting several schedule changes.
Like you, I am anxiously awaiting roster announcements for the upcoming season. I will post the 08-09 Jackals roster here as soon as players are officially signed. Have you purchased your season tickets yet?

April 20, The Jackals jumped out to a 3-1 lead but Reading came storming back to tie it at 3-3. Luke Fulgum put Elmira up 4-3 with his second of the game but Mike Salekin tied it for Reading an forcing overtime. It took two extra sessions before Kevin Saurette scored the game winning series clinching goal to propel Reading into the second round against Cincinnati.

April 19, The game went into overtime when Brock Hooton, the overtime hero from game 2, scored the game winner at the 8:33 mark. The win puts the Royals up 3-2 with an opportunity to clinch on home ice tomorrow.

April 17, The Jackals beat the Royals 5-2 in Reading to tie the series at 2-2. I did not attend this game so I won't have any photos but I will be covering ALL remaining series games.
April 15, Elmira drew first blood on the strength of a Benoit Doucet first period goal but two second period goals by Patrick Jarrett gave Reading a 2-1 lead after two. Pierre-Luc Faubert would score a shorthanded goal to knot it at two all but Reading scored on the same power play to take a 3-2 lead they would not relinquish. Reading takes a 2-1 series lead back home to Sovereign Center Ice and game 4 of the series.
