Who would have thought that a dog would make a good mascot? Harvey happens to be the first NHL mascot, introduced in 1983. His tongue hangs outside his mouth. In 2003, Edmonton Oilers coach Craig MacTavish ripped the tongue off of the mascot. At the All-Star game that season, many mascots showed support for Harvey with their tongues hanging down.
Iceburgh—known as “Icey”—made his debut during the 1991-1992 NHL season. The mascot’s name is a play on the words “iceberg” and “Pittsburgh.” The mascot has even appeared in a movie titled Sudden Death, starring Jean Claude Van Damme.
This kid-friendly version of the devil is inspired by the New Jersey Devil—a mythological beast child. Although he’s a bit creepy, he always has a huge smile on his face.
