Seattle Hockey Homepage

Welcome to the newly redesigned Seattle Hockey Homepage.  After more than ten years on the web, it was time for what will hopefully be an upgrade - a redesigned site with more content devoted to the history of hockey in Seattle.  You’ll find season recaps, player and team photos, statistics, memorabilia and more related to hockey in the Emerald city from 1915 to today.


Over 1,000 men suited up for Seattle’s teams over the years, from the Stanley Cup winning Metropolitans early 20th century to the Western Hockey League Thunderbirds of today.  More than 250 of them played one or more games in the National Hockey League, and eight made such an impact that they were inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. 

Interested in learning more about the history of Seattle hockey?  Check out these books!


Hockey in Seattle (128 pages), published in 2004, is the history of Seattle hockey in photographs, from 1915 to 2004.  Each major team is profiled, along with a chapter devoted exclusively the Seattle’s all-time greatest player, Guyle Fielder.  Available in Seattle area bookstores and Our Soulmate.


Emerald Ice (280 pages) was self-published in 2007 and provides a detailed season-by-season history of Seattle hockey.  It also includes 90 pages of league standings, individual player statistics (updated using league and media sources), and lists of single season and career record holders.  Available directly from the author for $28 (includes shipping).
