The Chicago Steel Leave The Edge In Bensenville For Fox Valley Ice Arena

While not such a well kept secret in Chicago hockey circles, the USHL’s Chicago Steel let the rest of the world know today that they are officially moving to Fox Valley Ice Arena.

In years past the relationship with Edge Ice Arena and the City of Bensenville had been strained with prior ownership.

New Steel ownership has decided to move now, rather than later.

Rumored to be taking place is a dramatic improvement at Fox Valley, which may or may not include a new sheet of ice being added with seating for 4000.

Below is the official release;

The Chicago Steel, Chicagoland’s only Tier 1 Junior (20U) hockey team, are moving to their new home at Fox Valley Ice Arena for the 2015-2016 season. The players, coaches and leadership of the Chicago Steel are excited to bring their talents, energy and passion to the Tri-city communities of Geneva, St. Charles and Batavia, and engaging in the wider Chicagoland and Kane County communities that comprise our loyal and growing fan base.

The Chicago Steel are a member club of the United States Hockey League (“USHL”), the only Tier 1 junior league in the United States and the premier league for development of players, ages 20 and under, for success in college and professional hockey. Our mission is to provide our players with the physical, mental and character skills, on and off the ice, that will form the basis for their success in college and professional hockey and beyond, and to offer an exciting, friendly and positive sports entertainment experience for fans and families.

We look forward to meeting with members of the hockey, business and broader local communities over the coming months as we prepare for our first season at Fox Valley Ice Arena. Please join us for our home opener Saturday night, September 26 at 7 PM when we host the USA Olympic Hockey Development team.
