The Vancouver Voodoo were a modestly popular roller hockey outfit organized by former Vancouver Canucks enforcer Tiger Williams and business partner Mike King during the mid-1990’s. The Voodoo were one of the 12 original franchises in Roller Hockey International (RHI) in 1993. RHI was an attempt to capitalize on the recreational in-line skating boom of the era. The Vancouver Canucks purchased the Voodoo ahead of the team’s fourth season in 1996 and moved the team into General Motors Place, the NHL team’s new $160 million ice palace. But the Canucks’ parent company changed leadership later that year and decided to disband the money-losing Voodoo in December 1996.
