The Scouts were there from 1974-76.

Before that they had the Blues (1967-72) in the CPHL, and after that the Red Wings (1976-79) in the CHL.

From there it went to the Blades (real IHL) from 1990-2001 and the UHL team in 2004-05.

The UHL team was owned by one of the Frankes, who also own the Fort Wayne Komets. They drew sparse crowds and they folded owing a lot of money to vendors....
