Binghamton Whalers

The Binghamton Whalers were an ice hockey team in the American Hockey League. They played in Binghamton, New York, USA, at the Broome County Veterans Memorial Arena.

History
While the Binghamton Whalers were generally a successful team, their final season was the worst in the entire history of the AHL, after which they folded. Ironically, the Hartford Whalers moved its affiliation to Springfield the next season, where the seven remaining players from the disastrous 1990 Binghamton season helped the Indians to their seventh and final Calder Cup championship.
