Tucson Rustlers
The Rustlers were part of Tucson, Arizona’s procession of short-lived pro hockey teams in the 1970’s, following the Central Hockey League’s Tucson Mavericks (1974-1975) and the Tucson Icemen (1976-1977) of the Southwest Hockey League. Like their predecessors the Rustlers lasted only one season before evaporating, and they were lucky to make it that far.
