Logo of an old hockey team that played in the National Hockey League from 1925 until 1930, the Pittsburgh Pirates. Although they are barely remembered among the city’s pro sports teams today, the team was the first in Pittsburgh to use the black and gold color scheme that is prevelant today in the Steel City. The most prominent player for the team was captain Lionel Conacher, and their coach, Odie Cleghorn, was an innovator, as he was the first NHL coach to change players on the fly, and also the first coach to use 3 set forward lines, in an era where most teams just kept their best players on the ice for as long as possible.
