Follow on Google News | Costco to Host Book Signing For Hockey in DaytonLocal author, Chuck Gabringer, will be available to sign copies of book
Local author, Chuck Gabringer, will be available to sign copies of book In the 1950s, crowds that equaled half the city of Troy’s population filled the newly constructed 3,900-seat Hobart Arena to watch the area’s first hockey team, the Troy Bruins, take the ice. In the 1960s and 1970s, fans packed one of hockey’s great “barns,” Hara Arena, to watch the Dayton Gems become one of the more well-known and successful franchises in all of professional hockey. In the 1990s and 2000s, it was the Dayton Bombers that reignited the area’s love for hockey. Hockey in Dayton tells the story of the teams, players, people, and events that have permanently frozen hockey’s place in the history of Dayton area sports. About the Author of Hockey in Dayton: Chuck Gabringer is a Dayton hockey historian and lifelong resident of the city. His family’s ties to hockey date back to the beginning of the Dayton Gems in 1964.

Nutter Center from 2002 to 2007.
