About me:
For nearly half a century, Muskegon County has been home to professional hockey, professional hockey that has seen some great success. But, the great success has come over the course of the last seven seasons. During those seven years, the United Hockey League’s Muskegon Fury has won four championships, a league record.
Established in 1992, the Fury, founded by their current President and Team Owner Tony Lisman, came to be when the International Hockey League’s Muskegon Lumberjacks moved to Cleveland, Ohio. Hockey had been a part of Muskegon for better than three decades, and Lisman wasn’t about to let the tradition end. To this day, the tradition continues, and does so with great success.
In 15 years of competition, the Fury has never seen a losing season, and has never missed the playoffs. In that time frame, the Fury has a winning percentage of .620, something no other team in minor-professional hockey can match.
The Fury takes great pride in the community services they perform. Furious Fred, the lovable team mascot, is frequently seen throughout the community, appearing at schools, parades, charity events, and much more.
The Fury also takes great strides in aiding the community in as many ways as possible. They work very hard with the local Child Abuse Council and United Way, as well as many other charitable organizations. In addition, the Fury visits many schools during the season, stressing the importance of education and good health.
The L.C. Walker Arena houses the current UHL kingpins, and is the premiere event facility along the area shoreline. When hockey is in the off-season, the arena is also home to concerts, the circus, conventions, and, new to the arena, The Muskegon Thunder of the Great Lakes Indoor Football League. Don’t miss your opportunity to come down and get a taste of action-packed, Fury championship hockey!
