The Maple Leafs announced Monday that they will host their inaugural Leafs Nation Fan Night on December 20, 2011 at Air Canada Centre beginning at 7 p.m.

This free fan-focused event will be a combination of the best elements of a Maple Leafs’ in-game experience and will be highlighted by an intrasquad game.

Starting November 7 and through December 7, tickets for the Leafs Nation Fan Night will be distributed through a variety of channels including contests, events, promotions and giveaways. Fans can obtain passwords by following the Toronto Maple Leafs on Twitter or Facebook. Once a password is obtained, fans can visit mapleleafs.com/fannight, follow the contest link and enter the password for a chance to win tickets.

The evening will see the Maple Leafs roster split into two teams – Blue and White. Team Blue and Team White will showcase their skills by participating in a hardest shot and target shooting
competitions followed by an intrasquad game. The game will have the look and feel of a regular Maple Leafs game and will include a half time show, prize giveaways, fun contests and other exciting activities. The night will conclude with a full-team elimination shootout.
