History

Coming into existence in the second year of the California Hockey League, the Los Angeles Canadiens were the longest-lived franchise of the group. The team survived for seven years but began experiencing problems when the Western Hockey League expanded south in 1961. A little over a year after the Los Angeles Blades first took the ice, the Canadiens were forced to move to Torrance mid-way through their eighth season.^[2] After the year, both the team and the league folded.
