Last week, we visited Giant Center to try something different. We asked four members of the Hershey Bears to try a holiday treat. That treat was the Chocolate Candy Spaghetti seen in the Will Ferrell movie ‘Elf’.

Mason Mitchell, Lucas Johansen, Colby Williams, and Connor Hobbs each tried a small plate of the pasta, which featured spaghetti noodles, chocolate nonpareils, Reese’s Pieces (note: we know this is not accurate to the movie, but it’s the only thing Hershey’s offers that’s similar,) chocolate syrup, caramel sauce, maple syrup, mini marshmallows, and fudge pop tarts.

Thursday afternoon the Hershey Bears released the first images of their 2018 Outdoor Classic uniforms. The white sweaters will be worn against the Lehigh Valley Phantoms on January 20.

The uniforms feature HERSHEY across the chest. Hershey last wore cross chest wordmark in 2009, but the design features a similar to the 1969 uniforms the Bears wore to win the Calder Cup.

In 68 games last season with the Kelowna Rockets, defenseman Lucas Johansen had six goals. In only 25 games for the Hershey Bears, Johansen has five.

So where has this scoring touch come from this season? Possibly a little bit of studying of a former Bears defenseman, Christian Djoos.

Forward Nathan Walker was claimed off waivers Friday by the Edmonton Oilers and added to their NHL roster.

Walker, who made the Capitals roster out of training camp, has only played seven games this season.
