Michal Teply scored the goal that led to the raining down of stuffed animals at the annual “Teddy Bear Toss” game at the Rockford IceHogs on Dec. 10, 2022.
Each season around the holidays, the IceHogs host the Teddy Bear Toss game. Fans are invited to bring new stuffed animals to the game and after the IceHogs score their first goal, fans toss the stuffed animals onto the ice. The stuffed animals are then collected and distributed throughout the community to children of need to help brighten their holiday season.
