Every year Bears fans see specialty jerseys based on holidays the Bears play on. Recently, Bears fans have been treated to Groundhog’s Day jerseys, Movember jerseys, and the Ugly Christmas Sweater jerseys. But what about jerseys that aren’t seasonal? The only non-time related jersey the Bears have sported are Washington Capitals jerseys with the Bears crest on the sweater.

Wednesday marks the beginning of the 2015 Free Agency period for hockey, which means it’s time for the Bears to bring in new players to fill out next season’s roster. Currently, Hershey has 15 possible players for next season (excluding the two RFA offers from Washington to Stan Galiev and Chris Brown.)
But the Bears still need a few key parts to fill out their roster, and there’s one player in the back of every Bears fans mind that they would love to see back in a Chocolate and White sweater: Chris Bourque.

We hate to bring up bad memories, especially since the correct mentality in hockey is to continuously move forward. However it’s worth it to briefly reflect back on how our playoff hopes and dreams, as well as the Mike Haviland era ended a year ago. Back-to-back road games in Norfolk, in mid-April; Both must win games, and both dropped by the Bears in regulation.
Now currently, we’re thankfully nowhere near as dire and concerning of a situation. Even after dropping a 5-3 decision to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, the first of two meetings this week.
Sunday night was affiliate night at the Hershey Bears game and it was mascots and cheerleaders galore for fans to enjoy. Right now, the Chocolate and White only have the famous Coco the Bear, who recently got a make over of his own, but does the 76-year-old franchise need cheerleaders?

Today we introduce a feature on Sweetest Hockey on Earth, Head to Head. Our Matt Trust and Kyle Mace will face off on a new topic. For our inaugural debate, we look at hybrid icing.

24-hours after the Outdoor Classic finished, we asked you on our Twitter to describe the game with three words. You guys had some really descriptive adjectives! Let’s take a look…

Aside from a new logo, uniform and a fuzzy mascot being released to Bears Nation on a few weeks ago, the ceremony also gave the opportunity to reflect on how great the Hershey Bears fan base is. On a randomly chosen work and school night, several weeks before hockey season, a season ticket holder crowd of nearly 3,000 rushed through the Giant Center doors to see the start of what is advertised as a new chapter in Hershey Bears history.
