1941–42 Brooklyn Americans season

1

The 1941–42 Brooklyn Americans season was the 17th and final season of the Americans NHL franchise. After the season, the Americans franchise was suspended for the duration of World War II. Although general manager Red Dutton intended to revive the franchise after the war, the franchise folded in 1946.

Offseason

The team's name was changed to the Brooklyn Americans and the team moved its practices to the Brooklyn Ice Palace. However, with no arena in Brooklyn suitable even for temporary use, the club continued to rent Madison Square Garden for games.

Regular season

The season started respectably for the Americans with a 3–3–1 record before going through a 10-game losing streak from November 22 through December 16. The United States entered World War II after the December 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor, and the Americans suspended operations after the season, expecting many of their players to enlist.
