Amarillo Wranglers Amarillo Wranglers
The Amarillo Wranglers were in the C.H.L. for two years, but the years were not back to back. The Wranglers suspended operations after the 1968/69 season. They then returned to the league for the 1970/71 season but again they ceased operations after that season. The Pittsburgh Penguins tried twice in Amarillo and each time they have found it costly due to poor attendance.
