Binghamton is the AHL affiliate of the New Jersey Devils.
Devils hockey season is suspended, Rumble Ponies baseball will have a delayed start.
Binghamton’s professional hockey team plays its first regular-season game on Saturday. The Binghamton Devils borrowed their nickname from the New Jersey Devils, their parent club. The word “Devil” can connote fire, torture, burning for all eternity. But, not this Devil. This one is based on an urban legend. “This is not the devil of the bible,” said Angus Gillespie, a professor and folklorist at Rutger University. “This is a creature, a legendary creature of southern New Jersey.”
So, think less Adam and Eve and more Loch Ness Monster and Big Foot.
BINGHAMTON (WSKG) – Professional hockey in Binghamton will have a new look next year. “The New Jersey Devils will be bringing their American Hockey League development team to Binghamton and the Floyd L. Veterans Maines Veterans Memorial Arena will be their home,” said part-owner Tom Mitchell. New Jersey replaces Ottawa as the team’s NHL affiliate. Last year, Ottawa announced it would move its American Hockey League affiliate to Belleville, Ontario. At the time, Mitchell said the AHL guaranteed Binghamton would get a replacement team.
