1975–76 Kansas City Scouts season

The 1975–76 Kansas City Scouts season was the second and final season for the NHL franchise in Kansas City, Missouri. They played their home games at Kemper Arena. The Scouts started the season by going 11–21–4 in their first 36 games, but after their December 28 win against the California Golden Seals, the Scouts would win only once in their final 44 games going 1–35–8, to finish with a record of 12 wins, 56 losses, and 12 ties (for a season-ending total of 36 points).

The last four games the Scouts ever played took place in Japan. Following the conclusion of the 1975–76 regular season, Kansas City and Washington participated in an exhibition series with the first two games played in Sapporo (site of the 1972 Winter Olympics), the third and fourth in Tokyo at Yoyogi National Gymnasium, site of the swimming and diving competition at the 1964 Summer Olympics. The Capitals won the first three contests. On April 18, 1976, the Scouts defeated Washington 4–2. Thus, Kansas City won its final game but it did not count in the NHL standings.

During late July 1976, the Scouts left Kansas City for Denver to become the Colorado Rockies ending their two-year stint in Kansas City.
