The Philadelphia Phantoms defeated the Chicago Wolves tonight, 5 - 2, to win the AHL's Calder Cup. The Phantoms burst ahead with a four goal second period.
Philadelphia fans showed up in droves, selling out the Wachovia Center and setting an AHL playoff attendance record with 20,103 in the building.
I was at the game, and will be chiming in with my thoughts in the morning. If you were there -- or just following on the web -- please drop a link or some thoughts in the comments. I'll update this post as needed.
The Philadelphia blogging community checks in:
I've posted my experience/recap at promohthree.
Let's not forget our print friends: Phil Sheridan wrote a column for the Inquirer.
Dave has a photo of the champs up at the lunabomber manifesto.
Philly Sports Blog hopes that these champs can get on the ice as Flyers and chase down a different Cup.
