Surrey Knights return to action tonight (Thursday, Sept. 6) in a season-opening game at North Surrey Recreation Centre.
The Pacific Junior Hockey League team plays Port Moody starting at 7:45 p.m.
Heading into regular-season action, the Knights recently held a number of “open tryout” skates at Surrey Sport & Leisure arena in Fleetwood.
John Craighead has returned from a suspension to coach the team, which is looking for a fresh start following a tough couple of seasons in Surrey.
