An affiliate of the Columbus Blue Jackets (NHL), the Jackals are AA professional. Hulberg’s fans will still be able to follow his play-by-play on the B2 network and occasional games on the NHL Network during the Jackal’s upcoming season.

“It’s a bittersweet time for me, I am following my dream of making it to the NHL but Bismarck has so much potential to have an unforgettable season. I would just like to thank my brother Mat and the Bobcats ownership for everything they have done for me.” Hulberg stated.
“I am very proud of Nick and while we would have loved to have him stay with Bobcat Hockey, he has been given a special gift and we are happy that he can continue the pursuit of his dream and have no doubts he will accomplish them” Says Thom Brigl, Owner-CEO, of the Bobcats.
Bobcat Hockey is proud to have launched Nick Hulberg’s broadcasting career. We would like to wish him luck in New York. Nick, you will be missed.
