Since the Idaho Falls Spud Kings first hit the ice in 2023, the team has fed off its fans. And their fan support has only grown over the past two seasons of this minor league hockey team.
“For us as a team with the following that we have, it is important that we engage and embrace the fans of our team. One of the reasons why we are successful on the ice is because of the community support this team has had before the puck even dropped at the Mountain America Center,” said Erik Hudson.
Since Anthony Bohne has stepped in as the team’s head coach, the Spud King’s team has only evolved. “Continuing the community support with the style of play that our team has captured since Coach Bohn has been at the helm, our momentum is apparent and it has allowed us to recruit players that match the brand of hockey we want to play to be successful,” said Erik.
Since their debut, this hockey team has become a community commodity and not just for hockey fans. Going to the Mountain America Center to watch these players play on the ice is a thrilling and enjoyable experience for anyone, and why their fan base has grown so much.
“The pride of our fans is so great, it’s important to our organization that the experience at the arena and the product on the ice meet and exceed expectations,” said Erik. “Our goal at the end of the day is to develop our players into great young men, as well as to put a winning product on the ice for our fans to celebrate and enjoy.”
As they gear up for the 2025-26 season, they are excited to share another season with their fans and the community. “We hope to bring in the right people into our Idaho Falls community and hockey family and by doing that we hope to put a good product on the ice that the community can be proud of,” said Coach Bohne.
