    Bruce Boudreau is bringing a new hockey team to Hershey

    Bruce Boudreau and his wife Crystal are returning to Hershey and they’re bringing a competitive hockey team with them.

    The beloved former Capitals head coach has purchased a Tier III Junior A team in the United States Premier Hockey League (USPHL). The Boudreaus also own the USPHL Premier Division’s Minnesota Blue Ox. Brady Boudreau, Bruce’s son, serves as an assistant coach there.

    The Hershey club will play at the historic Hersheypark Arena during the 2021-22 season. The arena, which sometimes gets foggy during hockey games, first opened in 1936 and was the Hershey Bears’ home until 2002. The venue is the same place where NBA Hall of Famer Wilt Chamberlain had his 100-point game in 1962.

    TJ Oshie scores in scrimmage after some nifty playmaking by Capitals’ second line

    There weren’t many highlights from the Washinton Capitals’ first scrimmage of training camp on Thursday as players grappled with a new system, new linemates/defense partners, and an awkward offseason of training due to the pandemic.

    The best play of the scrimmage came late in the second (and final) period by the team’s second line: Jakub Vrana, Nicklas Backstrom, and TJ Oshie.

    Backstrom and Oshie combined to force a turnover at the blue line by prospect defenseman Lucas Johansen. Oshie then carried the biscuit down the ice on an odd-man break and the three skill players got down to business.

    How are you guys doing?

    The last nine months we’ve struggled through a global pandemic and extreme political divisiveness. This period in life has been difficult, fatiguing, scary, and unending. I know that I, like many of you, felt optimism on New Year’s Day. I felt lucky that I survived through 2020. I said to myself, there’s an end in sight to the global pandemic that has upended our lives and taken so many people away from us. 2021 had to be better. There are vaccines! Maybe we could get back to normal soon?

    I had hope and then yesterday happened.

    I just can’t in good conscience continue writing today until I say a few things.
