AMERKS HOST MONSTERS SATURDAY FOR 70’s THROWBACK NIGHT
Specialty 70’s jerseys highlight Rochester’s final home game of calendar year
Dec 19, 2025The Rochester Americans return from the annual Christmas break on Saturday, Dec. 27 when they host the North Division rival Cleveland Monsters for 70’s Throwback Night, presented by Seneca Park Zoo, in the finale of a four-game homestand at Blue Cross Arena. The 5:05 p.m. matchup will also be the first of back-to-back meetings between the two teams as well as Rochester’s final home game of the calendar year.
The Amerks will wear their third of six specialty throwback jerseys Saturday against Cleveland as part of the team’s season-long celebration of its historic 70th-anniversary season. The one-of-a-kind, game-worn jerseys, inspired by those of the 1970’s, will be auctioned off on DASH, a sport-focused online auction platform and partner of the Amerks, to benefit Seneca Park Zoo.

The home-and-home series shifts to Cleveland just two days later for a rematch with the Monsters on Monday, Dec. 29 at Rocket Arena. As part of the AHL’s 90th Anniversary Throwback Games, both teams will wear specialty jerseys for the contest, with Rochester bringing back the 1960’s-inspired red sweaters previously worn earlier this season against Syracuse.
The first 1,500 fans in attendance on Saturday will receive a 1970’s jersey rally towel, matching those of the sweaters the team will wear for the game, while the first 2,500 fans 21 and older can take home a 70th anniversary Amerks koozie, courtesy of the Genesee Brew House, with the purchase of a Happy Hour beverage.
