The Phoenix Coyotes announced Tuesday the annual Fan Appreciation Night will be held on Saturday, March 31, against the Anaheim Ducks at 6:00 p.m. at Jobing.com Arena.

Fan Appreciation Night is a chance for the Coyotes to give back to their loyal fans and supporters with raffle prizes and giveaways handed out through the night. Also, fans will have the opportunity to win game-used equipment and signed merchandise from various players, including autographed jerseys from Shane Doan, Radim Vrbata, Keith Yandle, Mike Smith and Ray Whitney. Additionally, thousands of Coyotes t-shirts, hats and promotional items will be given away during the game.

All fans in attendance will receive a poster detailing player achievements throughout the 2011-2012 season. A limited group of lucky fans will be chosen to take part in a postgame ceremony on the ice, where they will obtain game-used player sticks.

"Fan Appreciation Night is a great opportunity for us to thank our fans for their tremendous support and loyalty throughout the season," said Coyotes President & COO Mike Nealy. "We are thrilled to dedicate this game to our fans and we hope that they enjoy all the great giveaway items that we have lined up for them."

The Coyotes find themselves 7th in the Western Conference with 83 points heading into Tuesday night's game against division-leading Dallas.
