It’s a city that’s normally running high on a searing hot fever for hockey, but for one night this October, the are invading the newly-named Rogers Arena to take on Canada’s only NBA team, the Toronto Raptors.

    As Toronto faces the 2010/2011 season without Chris Bosh and recent Phoenix acquisition Hedo Turkoglu, this is already setting up to be an exciting pre-season match-up. No doubt Suns fans are eager to catch a glimpse of the new face of the Suns, including the additions of Hakim Warrick and Josh Childress.

    Tip-off’s at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, October 6, 2010 at Rogers Arena (formerly known as GM Place) in Vancouver. Tickets go on sale this Saturday (July 24th) at 10:00 a.m., available through Ticketmaster. I’ll undoubtedly be at the game checking out all the action and live Tweeting the event, so feel free to follow me.
