When people from the big cities thought something seemed too hard, we just grinned and said, 'It's supposed to be hard.' Growing up here wasn't easy that's why we did it, not you. So we built a hockey team that was like us, that we could be proud of, because we weren't like you. We're not made, we're not greedy say what you like about Beartown, but the people here are tough and hardworking. Sometimes people have to be allowed to have something to live for in order to survive everything else.

What makes it worse is the obvious satisfaction that all the former Beartown players, who now play for a rival team in Hed, take in that fact. "After everything that the citizens of Beartown have gone through, they are struck yet another blow when they hear that their beloved local hockey team will soon be disbanded.
