The Blades skated half a season, finishing 1974-75 at the Baltimore Civic Center after the league took over the money-losing Michigan Stags in January 1975. Johnny Wilson coached the team in both cities, and Gary Veneruzzo, who played for the franchise in Los Angeles, Detroit and Baltimore, led the 1974-75 Stags and Blades with 33 goals. The franchise was shut down after that season.
