The Fort Worth Wings were a minor league hockey farm club of the NHL’s Detroit Red Wings from 1967 through 1973. The club played in the Central Hockey League, which covered a territory from Tennessee to New Mexico at the time. The Wings maintained a violent rivalry with the CHL’s Dallas Black Hawks, who also began play in 1967.
