List of CBR Brave seasons

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The CBR Brave are an Australian ice hockey franchise that compete in the Australian Ice Hockey League (AIHL). The Brave are based in Australia’s capital city, Canberra, and to date have played all its home games at Phillip Ice Centre since its founding in 2014.[1] In four completed seasons, the team has yet to win a Goodall Cup championship and has qualified for the AIHL finals weekend four times. As of the end of the 2017 season, the Brave have won more than 50 regular-season games, scored more than 490 regular-season goals and accumulated more than 190 regular-season points.

CBR won their first major title in 2018 by clinching the H Newman Reid Trophy by finishing first in the 2018 AIHL regular-season standings.[2]

Notes

[edit]
  1. ^ CBR Brave and Adelaide Adrenaline were each awarded one point each and officially recorded a tie on 19 July 2014 despite there being no ties in the AIHL since the introduction of the shootout in 2006 due to a bus crash involving the travelling Adelaide players and staff en route to Canberra.[3][4]
