Holiday Hiatus

One of the great traditions in hockey is something other sports don’t do. The NHL actually closes for two days allowing the players, officials, and team staffs and employees spend the Christmas holiday with their families. The last time they played over the holidays was Christmas Eve of 1972 when Michael Nylander was a mere 12 weeks old.

OFB will follow that NHL tradition spending time with our families and friends where we’ll raise our glass to peace on earth, good will toward men.

Perhaps the bears will be only ones playing hockey on Christmas.
