The Minnesota Moose were an ice hockey team in the International Hockey League. They played in Saint Paul, Minnesota, USA at the Saint Paul Civic Center. The team also played some home games at the Target Center in Minneapolis. The Moose were never particularly well received (since Minnesota had previously been home to a full-fledged NHL team) and left after only two seasons. Despite this, they were a representative of professional hockey in Minnesota at a time when the hopes of the state for recovering an NHL team had all but vanished.
