Bears Win Calder; It's Time for Summer



The Hershey Bears won their second consecutive Calder Cup championship on Monday night, defeating the Texas Stars, 4-0.

The victory completed a winning run of four consecutive games for the Bears, who spotted the Texas Stars a 2-0 lead in this American Hockey League series before coming back with three victories in Texas and the series-clincher back in Hershey. The Bears get another entry on the list of AHL champions; it is Hershey's 11th Calder Cup title.

This officially concludes the 2009-10 season, giving the Lounge some time to unwind with a few draft previews, some cold adult beverages and the NHL Network's off-season fare, which will include classic Stanley Cup finals, every game from this past Stanley Cup tournament.

It all gets serious once again around the first week of September when the rookies compete in the fine prospects tournament at Traverse City, Mich. That's certainly something to look forward to.
