HUNTSVILLE, AL – After several months of speculation, the Huntsville Havoc has solidified their place in the 2004-05 hockey season.

Owner representatives of nine (9) existing professional ice hockey teams have agreed to affiliate and participate as the inaugural members of the Southern Professional Hockey League.
