Ivan Mullenix took his minor-league Denver Spurs into the WHA for 1975-76 after his NHL expansion plan fell through. The team played at McNichols Sports Arena under coach Jean-Guy Talbot with a roster built largely from the folded Chicago Cougars, and Ralph Backstrom led the club with 50 points in its 41 games in Denver and Ottawa. Crowds stayed small, and in January 1976 the club moved to Ottawa as the Civics, which folded on January 17.
More WHA: every World Hockey Association team. More Colorado hockey: every Colorado team.
