Washington Capitals: Hershey Bears Staring at 0-3 Series Hole
The Hershey Bears, the AHL affiliate of the Washington Capitals. were hoping home ice advantage at Giant Center would change their fortunes. Unfortunately for them, it did not.
The Hershey Bears dropped the first two games of the Atlantic Division Finals (second round) of the Calder Cup playoffs to the Charlotte Checkers on the road. The series shifted to Giant Center in Hershey but not even the home ice advantage made the difference for the Washington Capitals AHL affiliate.
The Checkers, like their parent club the Carolina Hurricanes, came away with a 3-0 series lead at the end of the night with the 3-1 victory.
