History
The predecessor of the Image Club d'Epinal was founded in December 1906 and was named Sports d’hiver Spinaliens (SHS). It brought together both figure skating and ice hockey enthusiasts, who met at the Poissompré pond which was available to them during the cold months. At that time, it was not a question of competing with real hockey countries like Canada or the Nordic countries, but rather of having fun with friends and relaxing. A first split between skaters and hockey players took place in 1909.
Today's Image Club d'Epinal was re-founded in 1997. The new club initially played in the lower-level leagues, but reached the top-level Ligue Magnus for the 2003-04 season. In 2007, Epinal finished as runners-up in the Coupe de France, falling 4-1 to the Ducs d'Angers in the final.
