Since their foundation in 1988, the Chiefs have played their home games at the Cambria County War Memorial Arena.
The franchise's first head coach was Joe Selenski, who held the position while the team was a member of the AAHL.
Ed Johnstone coached the Chiefs to three consecutive thirty-win seasons, but only advanced past the first round of the playoffs once.
Former NHL enforcer Nick Fotiu coached the Chiefs from 1995 to 1997, managing 47 wins in his first two seasons.
He started the 1997-98 ECHL season with six wins in his first thirty games, and eventually was replaced by assistant coach Scott Allen.
