Vancouver Venom History
The Vancouver Venom became a member of the newly established North American League in 1995. Sadly, it seems that this new league only played four league games before collapsing and the Venom weren't a part of any of those games!
The existence of the league and the Venom was dreadfully brief. It's interesting to note that the Mexico City Toreros, who were the only team in the league with a permanent home in Mexico, participated in all four of the "official" league games but ultimately lost to the Eugene Snowcats. The teams played two games in Eugene and then two in Mexico before the league folded.
Even though the Venom were never really on the ice, their logo design is still quite fascinating and we felt they had to be represented here.
