Allen County War Memorial Coliseum Fort Wayne

Adress: 4000 Parnell Avenue
Fort Wayne, Indiana 46805

Capacity: 10500
Opened in: 1952

The team was previously a member of the International Hockey League before it merged into the CHL in 2010. The Komets also played in the previous incarnation of the International Hockey League from 1952 until 1999, when they joined the United Hockey League (which took the IHL name in 2007). They have won seven post-season championship titles in the IHL in 1963, 1965, 1973, 1993, 2008, 2009 and 2010 with one in the UHL in 2003. They play their home games at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

The current Komets franchise (formerly the Flint Spirits) replaced the original Fort Wayne Komets that relocated and became the Albany Choppers in 1990 before folding in that same season. In all of North American professional hockey, only the Original Six teams of the NHL and the Hershey Bears of the AHL have played continuously in the same city with the same name longer than the Komets.
