The Tacoma Dome was the home venue for the Tacoma Sabercats hockey team during a five-year run in the professional minor league West Coast Hockey League. Tacoma won the regular-season Northern Division title and reached the league finals in its first season. The Sabercats lost to the defending champion San Diego Gulls in the league’s first Taylor Cup. The following season, the Sabercats returned to the playoffs after winning the Northern Division title again and this time defeated the Gulls in the Cup finals. It would be the only league championship for the franchise, which folded after the 2001-02 season. The Sabercats made the playoffs all five seasons, winning three division championships as well.
