The Firebirds-Bears rematch marks the first Calder Cup Finals rematch in 33 years.
The Firebirds are looking to avenge last year's loss to the Bears in the Calder Cup Finals. Hershey beat Coachella Valley in overtime in a dramatic Game 7 at Acrisure Arena.
Originating in the 1930's, it was Hershey's 12th Calder Cup championship. Meanwhile, in their first season as a franchise, it was Coachella Valley's first appearance in the Finals.
