The First Goal Fish Toss is an Idaho Steelheads home game tradition that has changed slightly over the years to allow for a quick celebration of the first goal the Steelheads score during the game. It is now a beloved fan and team tradition at each game, where one fan in the crowd is selected to throw a frozen steelhead trout out onto the ice. Fans can submit their names in a drawing to be selected for the honor of the First Goal Fish Toss, and selected fans not only get to the throw out the steelhead but also get tickets to the game and a goodie bag.Who is the Idaho Steelheads' mascot?
The mascot for the Idaho Steelheads is Blue the Bear. Blue is seen at all home games sitting with the fans and skating on the ice between periods. According to the story provided by the team, Blue grew up in nearby McCall, Idaho, and became the Steelhead’s mascot because insomnia kept him from hibernating during the winter.What is the Kelly Cup?
The Patrick J. Kelly Cup is the ECHL’s championship award given to the winning team of the playoff game in a best of seven series. Originally called the Riley Cup after Jack Riley, a former president in the American Hockey League, the cup was renamed to the Kelly Cup in 1997 after Patrick J. Kelly, the first commissioner of the ECHL. The Kelly Cup saw controversy during the 2018-2019 season when the Colorado Eagles refused to return the trophy in a timely fashion and it had to be replaced so the Newfoundland Growlers could have a championship cup before opening night.Back to TopEpic events and incredible deals straight to your inbox.
