When it comes to the Colorado Eagles’ opponent in the 2008 Ray Miron President’s Cup Finals, they describe the Arizona Sundogs perfectly.
The Sundogs proved on the ice, on the scoreboard and in all facets of the series they were just too much to handle for the Eagles, who watched as the Sundogs celebrated on the Budweiser Events Center Ice holding up the same trophy the Eagles claimed last season. That came thanks to a 6-3 Sundogs victory in Game 4 of the best-of-seven series, humbling a strong franchise which can’t claim its dominance on the Central Hockey League anymore.
Arizona became the first CHL team to sweep the championship series this century and the first since 1999, when Shreiveport swept San Angelo. And Arizona did it in front of a sellout crowd which, sat in a stunned silence when Alex Leavitt scored an empty-net goal wwith 2:10 remaining.
