Count down your favorite Theme Knights as we wait for the best fans in the AHL to return to The Stronghold!
JET STRONG
This past February, we welcomed Jet to America First Center and The Stronghold as a Silver Knight! Jet is a warrior from Cure 4 The Kids who is currently battling cancer. He took part in an HSK practice, signed an AHL contract, and joined the starting lineup for our Cancer Awareness Knight on February 3. You can follow Jet’s story at Jet Strong!
💜 Honored to welcome our newest Silver Knight, Jet, to his first practice! 🧡
Now that the contract ink is dry, Jet will be welcomed to the ice tonight! pic.twitter.com/7ZlYj898zX

ABOVE AND BEYOND
To celebrate and honor all members of the armed forces, the Silver Knights welcomed Durango High School’s Space Force ROTC program on Military Knight. Cadets showcased drills on the Tiltyard, and the program received one of the team’s two custom military jackets (designed by Jeanius Jackets).
