Formerly known as the Houston Skippers, they were a member of the United States Hockey League, and were active from 1947 to 1949.
In 1948 former Montreal Canadiens player Toe Blake was named head coach.
The Huskies, along with teams from Dallas and Fort Worth attempted to form a Texas Hockey League, but were unable to get firm commitments for dates.
Without a place to play, and no other city willing to host them, the Huskies were forced to cancel their 1949-50 season.
Bob Blake played one season with the Huskies and led the team to a championship trophy.
