They are a member of the International Hockey League and play their home games at McMorran Arena. The franchise was announced on June 20, 2007 as part of the new IHL. [ [http://www.ihl-hockey.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=354&Itemid=117 NEW INTERNATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE INTRODUCED] ] The Icehawks are owned by Larry Kinney, owner and CEO of Datapak Services Corporation of Howell, MI.

The Icehawks are coached by Stan Drulia, a right winger whose professional career spanned 13 years from 1989 to 2001, and included three seasons with the Tampa Bay Lightning of the National Hockey League. Drulia is entering his second year with the Icehawks, and third in the city of Port Huron. After one year directing the hockey operations and head coaching duties with the now defunct Port Huron Flags, he returned to the Blue Water area last season as both the head coach and general manager of the Icehawks. During their inaugural season, Drulia led the Icehawks to the Turner Cup Finals and a dramatic triple overtime loss to the Fort Wayne Komets in game 7. The Icehawks went 41-29-2-4 in the regular season and 7-5 in the playoffs, easily defeating the Flint Generals in the first round in just five games.
