In a Nutshell

An AHL affiliate of the Buffalo Sabres, the Americans skate toward a playoff berth in a game against the Houston Aeros on Hall of Fame Night

The Fine Print

Hockey combines the speed of basketball, the hard hits of football, and the glistening blades of competitive shaving. Study frozen fusion with this GrouponLive deal to see the Rochester Americans take on the Houston Aeros at Blue Cross Arena on Friday, February 15, at 7:05 p.m.

Choose Between Two Options

  • $12 for one G-pass for seating in an upper-level section (up to a $24.15 value, including fees)
  • $12 for one G-pass for seating in a lower-level section (up to a $26.15 value, including fees)

Because the ticket is a G-Pass, Groupon customers can use it to enter the venue directly; they will not need to redeem their Groupon at will call.

The Scouting Report

With 24 wins in their first 42 games of the 2012–13 season, the Rochester Americans are in the midst of a tight race with their American Hockey League Western Conference rivals as they pursue a second-straight postseason berth. The Amerks have won nine of their last 11 home games behind the stellar play of goaltender David Leggio, who leads the American Hockey League in wins. Although they haven't met the Amerks on the ice yet this season, the Houston Aeros were tied with Rochester in the standings entering play this week.

The February 15 contest is also Hall of Fame Night, celebrating the induction of Dane Jackson and Rich Funke into the Rochester Americans hall of fame. Dane, a former Rochester player from 1995–1998 and 1999–2001, carved his place in Americans history by captaining the team during their 1996 Calder Cup championship and netting 170 points while wearing the team's colors. Rich has been a valuable member of the Americans' broadcast team and helped the squad rise in popularity by convincing WHEC to begin broadcasting their games in the early 1980s.

Due to security restrictions, G-Passes must be printed out and presented in person at the event. They cannot be redeemed through Groupon's mobile app.

Rochester Americans

The Rochester Americans trace their roots back to the 1956–57 AHL season, when they entered the league with a bang by advancing all the way to the Calder Cup championship. They ended up losing the series to the Cleveland Barons, but their fast start did, indeed, portend future success; in a stunning spell of dominance, Rochester won three Calder Cups from 1964–68, losing in the championship series in 1966–67, the one season they failed to capture the title. The Amerks seized Calder Cup glory again in 1983, 1987, and 1996 for a total of six championships. Today, the Amerks are in their 31st season as the AHL affiliate of the Buffalo Sabres and remain one of the league’s most storied franchises.

The Groupon Guide to: Novelty Glasses

While traditional glasses are a handsomeness-destroying nuisance worn out of necessity rather than choice, many eccentric types have put a twist on the formula to come up with a popular variety of "novelty" spectacles. Which one is right for you?

Shutter Shades: You can see out, but no one else can see in, thus preserving for your future wife the honor of looking into your eyes for the first time.

Groucho Glasses: Styled after a popular comedian born in 1890, the world's last remaining pair of Groucho glasses will be recovered in 2029 by a boy rooting around in his grandfather's attic. The boy will briefly try them on, turning to his cousin to say "Hey, Jason, look—I'm a mustache man."

Dangling Slinky Eyeballs: These are gross, man—get 'em outta here!

Oversized Sunglasses: If regular sunglasses send the message "I'm here to party," then these oversized versions loudly declare "I am the party." If you're not wearing a pair of these right now, go back to bed and try life again tomorrow.

Can a pair of novelty glasses transform your entire life? Find out here.
