The Brantford Bulldogs will remain in Brantford, even after Hamilton’s FirstOntario Centre reopens.
Edmonton Oilers star Zach Hyman and his family, the new owners, confirmed the decision during a news conference and said he looks forward to working with the community moving forward.
In partnership with former owner Michael Andlauer, Brantford Mayor Kevin Davis announced a 15-year agreement making the team the anchor tenant of a proposed local sports complex.
The deal includes renewal options for up to 40 years, ensuring the Bulldogs’ presence in Brantford for decades.
