Last season, the Idaho Steelheads set the ECHL all-time record for points and wins with a 58-victory season and 119 points. However, in June, the Kelly Cup did not make its way to Boise.
Florida swept the Steelheads and took home the Cup.
Idaho opens their season tonight at home hanging two banners as conference champions and Brabham Cup champions (points leader), but they will not hang the one banner they wanted the most.
"You can't take away what we did," says Idaho Steelheads head coach and GM Everett Sheen when reached by phone on Thursday.
