The Soo Greyhounds will drop the puck on another season Friday night when the North Bay Battalion visit the GFL Memorial Gardens.

In anticipation of Opening Night — and the pre-game block party outside — Hounds general manager Kyle Raftis stopped by SooToday's downtown studio to talk some hockey (and a whole lot more).

Spoiler alert: Raftis has high hopes for this year's team. "It's going to be an exciting group," he says.

Game time is 7:07 p.m. The party on Queen Street kicks off at 4 p.m.
