Matt Strome wins the Calder Cup!!!


Little bit of good luck for Terik Parascak with the second goal, but a hat trick is great to see!

Hats are never safe when Terik Parascak is around. @PGCougars | @Capitals | #WHLHatTricks



The Hershey Bears have an influx of rookies at the AHL level as many top Capitals prospects make their pro debuts. As they learn the pro game, they're learning the importance of consistency to lead them to the NHL. bearshockeynation.wordpress.com/2025/11/13/pro…


Gotta make sure we plug an old article but a very relevant one considering Boyd's return - our original Thank You article for him from back in 2020! bearshockeynation.wordpress.com/2020/10/13/tha…

Couldn't find it posted but had to share this great article from Patrick Williams on Travis Boyd's return to Hershey and the great night he had! It means a lot to have him back in Hershey after some fantastic years as a Bear. theahl.com/news/return-to…

Who's drivin' the bus?? 🚍


Riley Sutter's been dealing with an injury for a little while - it's great to see him back on the ice!

Looks who’s back 👀

Nathan Walker GWG from Tuesday!

the beautiful game



Won’t be any easier for the Bears this weekend.

Transaction: We've activated forward @tfoerster8 off injured reserve. In a corresponding roster move, we have loaned forward Carl Grundstrom to the @LVPhantoms (AHL).

The interim tag is also turned permanent for Brent Thompson, who had been filling in for Wellar. Happy to have him - not often that a coach of his caliber is available and there’s a great team of coaches in Hershey!

We are proud to hire Brent Thompson as an assistant coach. Thompson brings over 20 years coaching experience and returns to Hershey where he played three seasons for the Bears and served as the club's captain in 2002-03. 📰 bit.ly/4qQgxXT

Proud of Patrick Wellar for being made the assistant coach of the Washington Capitals! We'll miss him here in Hershey, but few people more deserving of the promotion than him!

Congratulations to Patrick Wellar on being hired as an assistant coach for the @Capitals. Thank you to Wellsy for seven amazing seasons behind the bench!

Can confirm per Bryan Helmer - Leason is cleared and will play this weekend! Everything is good to go!

Hopefully a good sign - Brett Leason is skating on one of the team’s top lines at practice today.

Nice day to see practice - good to see Nicky Leivermann and Zac Funk out here in non-contact red jerseys!

Gotta think that trading Pierrick Dube at least partly enabled this signing for Traktor. Much like when they dealt Vecchione before the season, the lack of a return likely helped free up necessary space.

Always glad to have you back, Kravy. Welcome home.

Big honors for Mitch Gibson as the ECHL Goaltender of the Week! He's on an AHL contract with Hershey and his success is great for the organization.

It’s been just over a decade since the NHL introduced the offside challenge rule. I know there are technological challenges with some of the older AHL barns that exist, but it seems to be sticking around in the NHL and it’s time to make it happen in the AHL.

Obviously at home, a little disconnected from the broadcast but accurately mentioned that the Rochester goal was offsides. Wouldn’t mind replay in those situations enhanced in the AHL.
