History

Chicago Steel Chicago Steel hockey concept USHL Concepts Chris Creamer39s

The Fargo-Moorhead Ice Sharks moved to Chicago, Illinois and became the Steel in 2000. In May 2015, the majority ownership of the Chicago Steel was purchased by Larry Robbins while current owners Bruce Liimatainen and Mike Greenberg remained involved but as minority owners. The announcement for change of owners was accompanied by the announcement for a change of leadership on ice as Ryan Bennett and Dan Muse were hired as the new General Manager and Coach respectively.
