Indiana Ice officially introduced at press conference

INDIANAPOLIS, IN- The Indiana Ice has arrived in the "Circle City," as the latest member of the United States Hockey League, one of the top breeding grounds for future stars of the National Hockey League.

The team begins its exciting era in the USHL under the ownership of local businessman Paul Skjodt, a hockey enthusiast who played professionally in Indianapolis in the late 1980s and remains extremely involved to this day in the Central Indiana youth hockey movement.

"I have followed the USHL for three years and believe the league is second to none," said Skjodt. "These future stars show their passion, heart and desire every time they hit the ice."

"We are very excited about the Indianapolis market and we are looking forward to having the Ice in America's Tier I League," said USHL President Gino Gasparini. "We think the city will be a valuable addition to the USHL footprint and we know the organization will work hard to make the club a success."

The new USHL organization will retain the Ice nickname, but the logo and colors will take on a different look. The new logo features a Bigfoot character with the colors being blue, white and gold. The new logo was designed by Flynnagain Productions of Toronto, Ontario.
