The Steelheads were named for a species of seagoing rainbow trout native to Idaho streams and rivers and popular with local anglers. However, the Steelheads logo in not a fish. Instead, it consists of a hockey puck bouncing off of a steel hockey mask. The Steelheads began play as a WCHL expansion team in 1997. Home games are played at the 5,000-seat Qwest Arena in downtown Boise. The Steelheads play in the West Division of the ECHL's National Conference. The Steelheads won the 2004 Kelly Cup in their first season in the ECHL, defeating the Florida Everblades in the finals. EXTERNAL LINKS |
