Special Holiday Sunday Edition

12.26.2021

It was expected that no BearSportsNews Sunday Edition would be published because the internet connections in Colorado would not access the normal BearData. COVID required homestay and the Holiday news was so full of good cheer that being at the computer is a news necessity.

The format will not reflect any order; the items are random in arrivals so they will be presented without any prioritization:

HOCKEY NEWS
