Hockey Week in Eastern Pennsylvania

Yesterday it was Philadelphia. Today, it's Hershey, Pa., where the American Hockey League's Calder Cup finals begin tonight. The Texas Stars, the top minor-league affiliate of Dallas, is the the opponent for the Hershey Bears, the top affiliate of the Washington Capitals.

The Bears have been idle since May 22, when they closed out the Manchester Monarchs in the Eastern Conference finals. Texas eliminated the Hamilton Bulldogs on May 26. Both teams should be rested and ready to determine which team is the best of the AHL.

Here's the Bears' roster, and here is the roster for the Stars.

Test the Internet radio links on the teams' Web sites (look for click here to listen on the site) to hear the game action, if you do not get the game on a regional TV outlets or subscribe to the AHL's live Web video stream. (Texas link is here; Hershey link is here.)
