Hershey Bears News Release

It's the only visit to the state of Ohio this season for the Chocolate and White as the BEARS look for a victory at Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland Tuesday. HERSHEY enters the game tonight in second place in the East Division. Tonight's game is the only game in the American Hockey League this evening.

The game tonight is the fourth of a five-game road trip for HERSHEY, and the BEARS are looking for a second consecutive win after a victory in Hamilton Sunday afternoon. Forwards Louis Robitaille and Chris Bourque are expected to miss tonight's game due to injury. Both players left the game Sunday at Copps Coliseum and did not return.

The Barons and BEARS did not play each other in 2004-05, and have not met since January 18, 2004 at GIANT Center. HERSHEY won the last time the club played in Cleveland on December 19, 2003 by a score of 2-1 in overtime.

Tonight's game can be heard via the BEARS radio network on 100.1 FM WQIC and 1490 WLPA-AM. Pennlive.com and B2 Networks will also carry the game, with B2 providing live video of the contest through HersheyBears.com. Ohio native John Walton has the call of the action tonight beginning at 6:45 p.m.
