History
[edit]In January of 2023, the NAHL approved the Colorado Grit as an expansion franchise.[1] The Grit's initial ownership group was the same one that ran the Northern Colorado Eagles (a Tier I junior team). Despite this, and the fact that both teams played out of the Greeley Ice Haus, officially there is officially no connection between the two clubs, though the similarities have caused some confusion.[2]
