St. Paul had two Fighting Saints teams. The original, a WHA founding club, moved into the new St. Paul Civic Center in 1973, made the playoffs in each of its three full seasons and watched Mike Walton lead the league with 57 goals and 117 points in 1973-74, before the money ran out in February 1976. That summer the Cleveland Crusaders moved in and took the name for 1976-77. Dave Keon played for both clubs, and all three actors who played Slap Shot's Hanson Brothers skated for a Saints team.
More WHA: every World Hockey Association team. More Minnesota hockey: every Minnesota team.
