Eveleth Rangers



The Eveleth Rangers were an amateur ice hockey team from Eveleth, Minnesota that played in various amateur leagues during the first half of the 1900s. As a member of the United States Amateur Hockey Association (1920–1925) the team was known as the Eveleth Reds, and in 1925–26 they played as the Eveleth-Hibbing Rangers in the CAHL, out of the Hibbing Memorial Arena in Hibbing, Minnesota.

History
During the inaugural USAHA season in 1920–21 Eveleth finished as runner-ups after having lost the final four-game series to the Cleveland Indians by a 12-14 aggregate score. The biggest star player on the team in the early 1920s was defenseman Ivan "Ching" Johnson, who had joined the club from the Winnipeg Monarchs.
