The Philadelphia Ramblers were a minor professional ice hockey team based in the Philadelphia Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Ramblers played for nine seasons in the Eastern Hockey League from 1955 to 1964.[1] After the end of the 1963-64 season, the team relocated to Cherry Hill, New Jersey and was renamed the Jersey Devils[1] (not to be confused with the NHL team).
Former members of the EHL Ramblers included Ted Harris (1956–58), future Toronto Maple Leafs coach John Brophy and goalie Ross Brooks who was one of the oldest rookies in the NHL playing for the Boston Bruins in the early 1970s. Doug Adam both played and coached for the Ramblers.
Previously, another Philadelphia Ramblers team played in the American Hockey League from 1935 to 1941.
