The Utica Comets don't have many home games left, but they're going to make them count. This Saturday is Military Night at the Utica Memorial Auditorium and there will be a ton of things going on dedicated specifically to honoring both active military members and veterans. The Comets are also asking for you to submit photos of your favorite military member using #CometsMilitaryNight.

It's not uncommon to see several Utica Comets players out and about around town. Most of the time, they are either participating in some sort of charity event or making a special appearance. It was no surprise that some awesome players would take the time out of their days to take some kids bowling!

Kraft is doing more than making fantastic mac and cheese dishes! They are teaming up with the NHL and NBC Sports to give away a $150,000 renovation to a local community's hockey arena! The contest is called "Kraft Hockeyville - For The Love of Hockey." We need your help to nominate our very own Utica Memorial Auditorium.

Are you getting excited for the AHL All-Star Classic weekend? The Utica Memorial Auditorium will be hosting the big game and anybody who is anybody when it comes to professional hockey will be there. In honor of the big weekend, Labatt's has created a beer in honor of The Utica Comets! It's called 'Power Play Lager' and it is delicious!

Could Detroit's favorite nickname belong somewhere else?

Not only are the Utica Comets off to a phenomenal start winning all three games their first week playing at the AUD, but goalie Jacob Markstrom has been named the CCM/AHL player of the week.

It's embarrassing enough to fall when someone is watching. It's even more embarrassing when it's in front of hundreds of people. Mark Donnelly, who sings the Canadian National Anthem before Vancouver Canucks games, did a face plant at center ice during a Penticton Vees game.

Even though we want Summer to stick around forever, it's just not possible. That is why we have Utica Comets hockey to look forward to.

There's nothing like a good hockey fight! Hockey is the only sport left on earth, other than MMA or Boxing, in which the officials will let the fighters go at it! This video comes from a game in Quebec.

This is a Utica College record, 15 players were named to the 2013-14 ECAC West All-Academic Team. The best part, our Pioneers had the most representatives out of any of the Conference's nine teams.

The Utica Comets, their fans and their arena, our very own Utica Memorial Auditorium, have been honored by The Stadium Journey website.

I don't know if the referee said, "Ladies, ladies, please" but if he did it didn't work. The women's hockey teams from Ohio State University and Bemidji State  engaged in a post-game brawl that resulted in a total of 303 minutes in penalties, a new NCAA record.
