About The Quad City Storm
Exciting hockey action has returned to the Quad Cities with the arrival of the Quad City Storm, playing out of Moline, Illinois, while also representing Bettendorf and Waterloo, Iowa, as well as Rock Island and East Moline, Illinois. The Storm are one of 10 teams in the Southern Professional Hockey League, replacing the Quad City Mallards of the ECHL in the region. The franchise's origins date back to 2009, when the SPHL's Louisiana IceGators began play in Lafayette, Louisiana. The team suspended operations in 2016 in anticipation of renovations to Lafayette's Cajundome, but eventually lay dormant until the team was purchased and moved to the Quad Cities for the 2018-19 season.
The Storm play out of the TaxSlayer Center, in Moline, Illinois, which seats 9,200 for hockey, and is also home to the Quad City Steamwheelers of the Indoor Football League. The TaxSlayer Center opened in 1993 as The MARK of the Quad Cities, and from 2005 to 2017 was known as the iWireless Center. The TaxSlayer Center has continuously been home to professional hockey since 1995, hosting two iterations of the Quad City Mallards (from 1995 to 2007 in the United Hockey League and from 2009 to 2018 in the East Coast Hockey League), and the Quad City Flames of the American Hockey League from 2007 to 2009.
The Quad City Storm are ready to take on the rest of the Southern Professional Hockey League, battling their regional rivals the Evansville Thunderbolts and Peoria Rivermen. The Storm's rivalry against the Rivermen, dubbed "Cold War On 74," is named after U.S. Interstate 74, which begins in Davenport, Iowa, and connects the Quad Cities to Peoria. In addition, the Storm face such teams as the Birmingham Bulls, Fayetteville Marksmen, Huntsville Havoc, Knoxville Ice Bears, Macon Mayhem, Pensacola Ice Flyers, and Roanoke Rail Yard Dawgs. You can follow the Quad City Storm all season on Twitter @QuadCityStorm.

Rating: 4 out of 5 First QC hockey game since the glory days of the Mallards
by Addy Daddy on 11/13/23Vibrant Arena at the Mark (formerly Taxslayer Center) - MolineWe decided on a much needed, and seldom opportunistic, date night. She and I work our tails off, and we finally got a night where the kids didn't have a practice, a game, a birthday party, etc. Tickets were cheap enough, so we said "why not?". We couldn't have had a much better time. The game was great, the fans around us were super cool, (one lady even gave us one of her miniature souvineer hockey sticks for our youngest boy at home). The "chuck a puck"landed him a foam puck as well. The entire experience was entertaining, to say the least. Of course concessions and the beer cooler will break the bank, but that's not on the team or venue. We can't wait to make it a family outing, as we.know the kids will have a blast. Thank you QC Storm and The Vibrant Arenafor such a memorable night. The only reason for a 4 star review, is the $25 I spent for AWESOME seats, was a fraction of the money I spent on parking and beer. And not.knowing in advance that everything from the time you turn into the parking lot to the time you exit it, is card ONLY. No cash transactions at all.
