List_of_Pittsburgh_Pirates_(NHL)_players
This is a complete list of ice hockey players who played for the Pittsburgh Pirates in the National Hockey League (NHL). It includes players that played at least one match, either in the NHL regular season or in the NHL playoffs. Granted a franchise by the NHL in 1925, the Pirates played in Pittsburgh from 1925 to 1930 and then moved to Philadelphia and became the Philadelphia Quakers. After their only season in Philadelphia, the franchise was cancelled due to financial problems. Philadelphia and Pittsburgh were each awarded an expansion team over a quarter of a century later, in 1967 (the Flyers and Penguins, respectively).
