You may not be familiar with the "Teddy Toss," but you will after watching this.

This is probably the woman of every NHL fan's dreams.

After a truly historic season last year, The Utica Comets begin regular season play on the road tonight against the Rochester Americans. This team has done so much for the City of Utica, but it also has been great for their parent club, The Vancouver Canucks. To show thanks and support for this AHL team and it's fans, a documentary was created by the Canucks.

Looks like high schoolers north of the border have as much trouble with referees as ones in the States do.

The first two Utica Comets home games of the 2015-16 season are sold out.

One of the most popular Utica Comets is moving on to the NHL.  Brandon Defazio has joined Cal O'Reilly and Bobby Sanguinetti, among others, on the list of players who will not return to Utica next season.  Defazio's presence will most definitely be missed.

The Utica Comets will play without Bobby Sanguinetti next season.

With the Utica Comets going all the way to the Calder Cup Finals this year, their season extended into June, which makes the off-season much shorter. Before you know it, it will be time for the preseason and another exciting season for our hometown heroes. This year the Comets vs. Crunch rivalry is going to begin on foreign soil!

Duncan Keith and Patrick Kane scored goals and goalie Corey Crawford was flawless in net, as the Blackhawks shut out the Tampa Bay Lightning, 2-0, in Game 6 of the 2015 Stanley Cup Finals in Chicago on Monday night. With the win, Chicago captured their third NHL championship in six seasons.

Some local hockey fans proved their team loyalty this morning, waiting in line since last night for tickets to the AHL's Calder Cup contests between the Utica Comets and Manchester Monarchs.
