History
In January 2021, Bruce Boudreau, a former head coach in the National Hockey League and the owner of the Minnesota Blue Ox, purchased a new USPHL franchise.[1] The new team was later named as the Hershey Cubs, in reference to the Hershey Bears, one of Boudreau former teams.[2] The new logo was similar in appearance to that used by the Minnesota Fighting Saints, including a halo above the head of the anthropomorphic bear.
