The Seattle Ironmen were a minor pro ice hockey franchise based in Seattle, Washington. They played in the Pacific Coast Hockey League from 1944-1952.[1]
After World War II, the Pacific Coast Hockey League was resurrected as a semi-professional loop. Seattle, known as a strong hockey town, was granted a franchise, the Seattle Ironmen.
The Ironmen won the PCHL championship in 1944-45, and then went on to win the 1944-45 United States National Senior Championship. They finished in first place in the league in 1948, while the league itself became fully professional in 1949.[2]
In 1952, the league changed its name to the Western Hockey League, and the Ironmen themselves changed their name to the Seattle Bombers the following the 1951-52 season.
