Columbus operated as a farm team to the National Hockey League's California Golden Seals.

The owner of the NHL Seals, Charlie Finley, had acquired the IHL franchise rights to the dormant Columbus Checkers to create the farm team.

The new owner, Al Savill, renamed the team the Columbus Owls for the 1973–74 season.
