The Phoenix Roadrunners were a team in the now defunct World Hockey Association from 1974 to 1977. They played at Arizona Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Phoenix, Arizona. The organization folded for financial reasons before the remaining teams in the WHA merged with the NHL in 1979.
In 1996 the Winnipeg Jets, a former WHA franchise, would move to Phoenix and became the Phoenix Coyotes (now the Arizona Coyotes).
