The Cleveland Indians were a professional ice hockey team in Cleveland, Ohio, that played home games in the Elysium Arena. [1]
In 1929, the Kitchener Dutchmen International Hockey League (IHL) franchise was transferred to Cleveland. In the summer of 1934, the team was renamed the Cleveland Falcons, and under that name became a charter member of the International-American Hockey League (now American Hockey League). Subsequently, the team was renamed the Cleveland Barons for the 1937–38 season, a name they kept until 1973. They folded after the 1973–74 season.
