Why The Hat Tricks Name?


  • Wanted to connect to the City of Danbury

  • Wanted to connect to the game of hockey

  • From 1884-1985, the site that Danbury Arena sits on was a hat manufacturing company

  • Origins of the Hat Trick:

    • In the 1940’s, players on the NHL's Toronto Maple Leafs were given free hats when they scored three goals in a game

    • Alex Kaleta was a member of the NHL from 1941-1951. As a member of the Chicago Blackhawks in 1946, Kaleta was in Toronto for a game strolling the city with empty pockets. He walked into Sammy Taft’s hat store, and Taft made a bet: if Kaleta scored three goals that night against his Leafs, he would give him a free hat. That night, Kaleta netted four  goals, thus being dubbed...the Hat Trick!

    • Considering the history, there is a better than 50% chance that the original hat given to Alex Kaleta was manufactured in Danbury

    • Nowadays, it is customary at any level of hockey after a player scores three goals to toss their hat onto the ice in celebration.

  • Our position?  There is no better arena or team that can lay claim to this name!

DANBURY ARENA GOAL HORN


In 2010, Moran Towing Corporation, President, Ted Tregurtha announced the donation of a tug boat horn to the Danbury Ice Arena from the Moran Towing fleet. At time Tregurtha was serving as the President of the Ridgefield Area Hockey Association (RAHA).

Based in New Canaan, Connecticut, Moran is one of America's oldest, largest, and most respected providers of ship docking, marine transportation and related services. Founded over 150 years ago in 1860, Moran has a fleet of over 100 tugs and more then 30 barges.

The donated horn came off the tug St. Charles, built in 1956, and based out of the New Orleans, Louisiana port and the Gulf of Mexico until her retirement in 2009.

The horn model is a Kahlenberg Model D-2, producing a tone of 266 Hz and 212 Hz frequencies simultaneously which is called a "Chimetone" sound.

DANBURY HAT TRICKS GOAL SONG



Dating back to the days of the Danbury Trashers in 2004, Danbury has rallied around one goal song: the ol' standby, Rock and Roll Pt. 2.
