The Hershey Bears will sport American Flag jerseys on Saturday, November 11 in honor of Veterans Day. The jerseys will be auctioned off postgame to fans with proceeds from the live auction going to Liberty USO at Fort Indiantown Gap and Veteran’s Trust Fund.
We’ve made you a new t-shirt for the most popular night of the year. With Teddy Bear Toss night just around the corner, we thought there’s a better way for you to tell people it’s going to be raining stuffed animals Sunday, December 3rd at Giant Center.
You couldn’t have asked for a better game to start our new series, Chocolate Hockey High. A Monday night rivalry match-up between two undefeated teams, the Lower Dauphin Falcons and the Palmyra Cougars.
With both student sections rocking, the Falcons would come out victorious with a third-period goal to give them a 2-1 win.
The Hershey Bears announced Sunday afternoon that rookie defenseman Connor Hobbs will miss six to eight weeks of action with a fractured wrist, sustained Saturday night in Hershey’s loss to Toronto.
Connor Hobbs left Saturday night’s Bears game with an apparent upper-body injury.
Hobbs, 20, has played in nine games for Hershey this season.
Mathias Bau scored his first AHL point with an assist on Anthony Peluso’s first-period goal against the Rochester Americans Friday night.
Netminder Vitek Vanecek was on rehab assignment with the South Carolina Stingrays Friday night in Greenville, South Carolina against the Swamp Rabbits.
Vanecek was playing his first game since the NHL preseason after sustaining a lower-body injury during training camp. The Czech Republic native made 36 saves on 39 shots in a 3-2 loss to the Swamp Rabbits.
After a scoring change on one of Hershey’s goals Friday night, forward Chris Bourque has matched his career high for points in a game with another five-point performance against Rochester.

In one of the craziest games in recent memory, the Hershey Bears fall to the Rochester Americans 7-6 in a shootout.
Hershey looked like they had this game in the bag after the first seven minutes. Travis Boyd scored 44 seconds into the match with a one-timer off of a Jeremy Langlois pass to make it 1-0 Bears.
Friday morning the Hershey Bears announced the rehab assignment of Vitek Vanecek to South Carolina, leaving only two goaltenders on the Bears active roster for Friday night’s game in Rochester.
Of those two, only one has played any regular season games this season in Adam Carlson. That will change Friday night as Pheonix Copley returns to the ice.
