THE STORY
From 1936-1940 the legendary Drumheller Miners of the ASHL spawned the five Bentley brothers. Three of the brothers made successful NHL careers and two were later inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. A second iteration of the Miners existed from 1965-1978 and in 1966 the Miners won the ASHL's coveted Allan Cup.
