The Toledo Storm played in the East Coast Hockey League (now simply the ECHL) from 1991 to 2007. They won back-to-back Kelly Cups in 1993 and 1994. In 1996, the team made hockey history as Erin Whitten, one of the team's goaltenders, became the first female to play a position other than goalie, skating for 18 seconds as a forward against the Madison Monsters. In 2007, the team ceased operations but returned in 2009 as the Walleye.
