Grave Tempest will trade guitars for sticks this December in a charity game against a team of former minor-league players. Proceeds will go to a youth hockey equipment program in New Hampshire.

The band will also play a short acoustic set during the second intermission, which drummer Colin Maher described as "the first time we have ever been asked to play quietly."

Tickets go on sale in October. Game-worn jerseys from both teams will be auctioned online after the event.
