History

Following the departure of the National Hockey League's Minnesota North Stars in 1993, the state of Minnesota was left without a professional hockey team. To fill that void, the Minnesota Moose were founded the following year. The team began play in the IHL for the 1994-1995 season, using the Saint Paul Civic Center at its home arena.

After two years in the Twin Cities, the team was sold to a group of Canadian businessmen including Mark Chipman, who relocated the team to Winnipeg, Manitoba and renamed them the Manitoba Moose. The franchise has played in the American Hockey League since the demise of the IHL in 2001.[1] The state of Minnesota welcomed a new NHL team, the Minnesota Wild, in 2000. The Wild play at the Xcel Energy Center, located on the site of the old Civic Center in St. Paul.

gollark: You could probably get away with just postgres or something.
gollark: Why Cassandra, anyway, isn't it some sort of fancy large scale distributed database?
gollark: No, pretty sure they exist in /var/lib/docker somewhere.
gollark: I don't think it would be much more than the size of the binary being run in the container. Maybe a bit more due to something something shared libraries.
