It’s June 1 and, for the first time since 2006, there’s a professional hockey game going on in the Old North State.
The Charlotte Checkers are six days removed from a double-overtime win over the Toronto Marlies that gave them a 4-2 win in the AHL’s Eastern Conference Finals, propelling them to their first Calder Cup Finals in Checkers history and the first for an affiliate of the Carolina Hurricanes franchise since the Springfield Indians won the 1991 title.
