BMHL bids announced: the Oceanic are officially in the BMHL!

We did it Nassau. We did it.

This afternoon, commisioner Brad Phillip went live on the BHL Network. A live feed of the announcement was shown on ZNS Bahamas. Thousands of fans gathered together in the viewing area of the Mountain Dew PowerDome, listening to the long speech by Phillip. Finally, he cleared his throat and announced:

" ...and so without further delay please help me welcome the Nassau Oceanic and the Montego Bay Reggae Boyz to the BMHL..."

The crowds went wild. Tens of thousands of people cheered loudly screaming "Go Ocs Go!" There will be a gigantic cocktail gala located in a fancy banquet hall near the PowerDome and the beach. It is currently  27°C and it is a definite warm weather for a place that now boasts a minor league hockey team.

Please check out the new "About" section, and coming soon the "Roster" section. Follow us on Twitter, and show your support!

We thank you for your fan support and be sure to always check out updates for the Oceanic!

Aquarium to be housed in PowerDome

The Mountain Dew PowerDome: ice hockey arena, entertainment complex, arcade, bar and gril...aquarium?

By the next two months, yes, there will be an aquarium housed in the PowerDome.

The deal was made with the Atlantis Aquarium to have rights to display native animals such as sharks, stingrays, and thousands of exotic fish. The aquarium, which will be called the Del Monte Aquarium (after the official sponsorship and ownership of the Oceanic)., will be located near the arcade.



GM Kyle Peters hopes it will bring a native feel to the Oceanic. "We want the PowerDome to be something for everyone", says Prestberg, "we're trying to bring the Bahamas to the visitors".

It is unkown whether live shows will be held. There are a few rumours of the arena being used, but those have been dismissed by Peters. All it is known is that the PowerDome will be getting some fishy visitors soon (I know, that was a bad pun).

A quick Oceanic run-through

Mountain Dew PowerDome opens

The home of the Oceanic officially opened today. Fans enjoyed a day at the arena by visiting the team store, meeting with new mascot Splash, and taking shots and playing NHL 12 in the interactive zone (pictured below).

"Today is a great boost for Bahaman hockey fans", says Kyle Peters, owner/GM of the Oceanic, "we hope that our bid proves to be one of the two new BMHL teams. With all your support, it looks like we might have a chance at it."

Jerseys and Logos unveiled

GM Kyle Peters gladly revealed the logos and jerseys of the possible new BMHL franchise, the Nassau Oceanic. The jerseys were designed by Peters and the Bahamas Association for Cultural Studies (BACUS).
