Hamilton defeats Hersey

by JP Bill Jun 8, 2007 12:36AM PDT
Hamilton Bulldogs win the 2007 Calder Cup

Cost of a beer at the Jump On The Bulldogs Bandwagon tailgate party a couple of hours before the start of the hockey game: $5.50. The cost of a hamburger at the same party: $2.

The cost of not winning the Calder Cup: Price-less.


And that is what the Hershey Bears were on Thursday night: Price-less. Because Carey Price was tending goal for the Hamilton Bulldogs and he backstopped them to the American Hockey League?s cherished silverware. Hamilton?s 2-1 win before a raucous 14,205 supporters gave the Bulldogs the AHL?s best-of-seven championship series 4-1, denying the defending Calder Cup champions a repeat of their glory from last season.

of hockey-related posts.

Reminds me of that old joke, "I went to a boxing match and a hockey game broke out."

Is there REALLY a team named the Hershey Bears? I'm not sure if that's too clever or too precious.

Say, JP..... minor league or farm club?
by Angeline Booher Jun 8, 2007 8:29AM PDT

Are those teams what I would call a minor league, or farm club?

We used to have a minor league hockey team until the Predators came to town.

We do have a baseball farm club.

Regardless, fan support was, and is, high for both.

My grandson played goalie for his High School team. Anther good reason for our interest in hockey! Happy

Hi Angeline

AHL are the farm teams for NHL teams.

The Saint John Flames (Calgary farm team) were here for 10 years 93 - 2003


I heard the Predators may be headed to Winnipeg.
