Why EHL Fans Are Better Than IHL Fans

While trolling the web for obscure EHL player pictures, I came across this program with a photo of the 1959-60 Saint Paul Saints. The ad at the bottom answers the question: "Why are Eastern Hockey League fans better than International Hockey League fans?"

Ted Lanyon, John Bailey, Bryan Derrett, Bob Cowan, Hugh Scobie, Lou Crowdis, Joe Woitowich from this team all played in the EHL at one point or another. http://hockeydb.com also includes Don Hart from these Saints as having played for the 1964-65 Jersey Devils, but I'm pretty sure that was actually Art Hart, not Don, on the Devils according to newspaper accounts - though its possible they both could have been on the team.
