The Montreal Roadrunners played from 1994 to 1997 in the Roller Hockey International. Their home games were at the Montreal Forum (1994–1996) and the Molson Centre (1996–1997). They were finalists for the Murphy Cup in 1995.
Former Montreal Canadiens Hall of Famer Yvan Cournoyer led the team and gave it his own nickname, feeling that roller hockey matched his former playing style. The Roadrunners had an average attendance of 7,299 people at the Forum in their inaugural season, a record among RHI's Canadian franchises and the best single-season attendance total for any RHI team aside from the Anaheim Bullfrogs.
