History of hockey in New York

see also: Buffalo Amateur Hockey (1946-1977) and New York Amateur Hockey (1946-1966)

There was some ice polo played in New York in the 1880s, and on February 25, 1887, it was written that “Athletes of Poughkeepsie and Newburg are playing polo on the ice for the championship of the Hudson.” Ice polo games were also contested between Poughkeepsie and Stanfordville in 1893. In 1894-95, there were some hockey games played in New York. New York St. Nicholas and the Staten Island Cricket Club were the most important clubs. The New York Ice Palace opened for the 1895-96 season, and both ice polo and ice hockey were played at the rink, the Ice Palace Polo Club and New York Hockey Club being established. Hockey also made its debut in Buffalo that winter, and the University of Buffalo formed a team. Cornell University also had an informal team, which lost 8-0 to New York St. Nicholas on March 28, 1896.

The American Amateur Hockey League was founded in November 1896 with four teams: Brooklyn Crescents, Brooklyn Skating Club, New York Athletic Club, and New York St. Nicholas. The Brooklyn teams played at the Claremont Avenue Rink, while the New York squads were based at the St. Nicholas Rink. The New York Ice Polo Club and Brooklyn Ice Polo Club were also active in 1896-97. Columbia University formed a hockey team, which lost 1-0 to the Brooklyn Skating Club in their first game on January 8 and was a founding member of the Intercollegiate Hockey Association in 1898. The Buffalo Hockey Association was established in 1900, but lasted only one season, the teams reverting back to playing exhibition games. Malone and Saranac Lake were playing hockey by 1898, Utica and Schenectady had taken up the sport by 1901, and activities were underway in Syracuse and Lake Placid by 1903 and Niagara Falls and Rochester by 1904. Albany had hockey by 1905, and the Loudon Field Club was established for 1906-07.

The Syracuse Arena opened in Syracuse for the 1911-12 season, providing the city with an indoor rink where hockey could be played. Syracuse University, after having played some informal games in years past, formed an ice hockey team, and the Syracuse Arenas were also established. The arena closed in 1914. The New York Wanderers joined the United States Hockey League for the 1917-18 season, which was also the last for the American Amateur League. The St. Nicholas Rink closed in 1918, leaving the 181st Street Ice Palace as the only indoor rink in the state. New York St. Nicholas joined the United States Amateur Hockey Association for 1920-21, but played their home games in Philadelphia, the 181st rink being too small. The Nichols Hockey Club was formed in Buffalo in 1921. The New York Canadian Club also joined the USAHA for 1922-23. Both teams withdrew from the league after the season, and New York St. Nicholas played an independent schedule in 1923-24 and 1924-25.

The Eastern Amateur Hockey League was contested in 1925-26, composed of St. Nicholas, the New York Athletic Club, and Knickerbocker HC, and two teams from Boston. The Metropolitan Amateur Hockey League was then formed for 1926-27. The Brooklyn Crescents, Canadian Club, and Seventh Regiment joined the three New York teams from the EAHL in it. The New York Americans were admitted to the National Hockey League for the 1925-26 season, and were joined in the league by the New York Rangers the following year. The Americans lasted until 1942, while the Rangers are still active. The Buffalo Sabres and New York Islanders became NHL franchises in 1970 and 1972, respectively.

The Buffalo Bisons joined the Canadian Professional Hockey League in 1928-29, and moved to the International Hockey League the following year. The Bisons played until 1937 (spending their last season in the American Hockey League, while the Syracuse Stars joined the IHL in 1930 and played until 1940 (playing their last four years in the AHL). A second Bisons franchise played in the AHL from 1940-1970. The Buffalo Americans/Majors played in the American Hockey Association from 1930-1932.

The Bronx Tigers were added to the Canadian-American Hockey League for 1931-32, playing one season in the league. They later played in the Eastern Hockey League in 1933-34 and 1937-38. The Rochester Cardinals spent 1935-36 in the IHL. New York St. Nicholas, Athletic Club, and the Brooklyn Crescents also joined the EHL for 1933-34, the former two only lasting one year, and the Crescents two (they later returned for 1943-44). The New York Rovers joined the league in 1935. A new Metropolitan Amateur Hockey League was established in 1933, and lasted until 1952. The New York Amateur Hockey Association operated from 1937-1940.

The New York State Hockey League was contested in 1954-55. The Clinton Comets, founded in 1927, were an independent team until 1950, when they joined the New York-Ontario League, before jumping to the Eastern Hockey League for 1954. The Lake Placid Roamers were active from 1946-1970. The Syracuse Rockets played from 1946-1955. The Syracuse Stars had a strong independent amateur team from 1956-1971, and spent the 1969-70 season in the Canadian Rideau-St. Lawrence League. The Rochester Olympics (later the Rockets) played from 1958-1962. The Dutchess Blues were active from 1971-1984, the Syracuse Royals were in 1972-73, the Potsdam Pioneers and Troy Cyclones from 1972-1980, the Ithaca Stars from 1973-1980, and the Rockland Colonials from 1973-1984. New York St. Nicholas, first active in 1896, is still in operation now. The Mid-Hudson Senior Hockey League was contested from 1970-1976.

The New York Raiders played in the World Hockey Association in 1972-73, and the New York Golden Blades began the 1973-74 season in the league, but moved in December and became the Jersey Knights. Post-World War II, New York has had numerous franchises in he American Hockey League, most notably the Rochester Americans, who have competed in it since 1956.
