The Syracuse Stampede are a Tier III Junior A ice hockey team in the North American 3 Hockey League (NA3HL). The team plays out of Morrisville IcePlex in Morrisville, New York. The Syracuse Stampede are owned by CNY Sports Management Inc. and is coached by Mike Beavis.
The franchise was formed in 2010 as an original franchise in the 2010–11 season of the Continental Junior Hockey League (CJHL). Michael Beavis was announced as the Stampede's first head coach having been an assistant coach with the Syracuse Stars of the Eastern Junior Hockey League as well as the Oswego Admirals of the Ontario Junior Hockey League.
On October 4, 2010, two weeks before the CJHL's expected start date, the league announced the Stampede and two other teams would not participate during the 2010–11 season, instead being added as expansion teams for a 2011-12 season that never took place.
Instead, the Stampede began play in 2011 in the Mid Atlantic Division of International Junior Hockey League (IJHL) Super Elite League. The team played out of the Cicero Twin Rinks in Cicero, New York. The Stampede went on to a 35-5-2 record winning the conference and advancing to the IJHL National Championship game where they lost in the finals to National Sports Academy.
The Stampede entered the 2012–13 in a new league, the Northern States Hockey League (NSHL). The team finished second in the regular season before winning the playoff championship against the Lake George Fighting Spirit. The Stampede also finished in 3rd place at the United Hockey Union National Tournament in April 2013 losing the semifinal game 1-0 in a shootout.
