Tallahassee Tiger Sharks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Tallahassee Tiger Sharks played in the ECHL from 1994-2001. While in Tallahassee, they played their games at the Tallahassee-Leon County Civic Center. Several local attempts have been made by local residents to revive or bring a new ice hockey team to Tallahassee, specifically by members of the FSU hockey team, unfortunately none have been remotely successful. Previous franchise identities included:
- Virginia Lancers (1988-1990)
- Roanoke Valley Rebels (1990-1992)
- Roanoke Valley Rampage (1992-1993)
- Huntsville Blast (1993-1994)
The franchise became the Macon Whoopee for the 2001-2002 season. Afterwards it became the Lexington Men O'War and is currently, since 2005, the Utah Grizzlies.
