The Guelph Indians were a Canadian junior ice hockey team in the Ontario Hockey Association from 1936 to 1940. After four seasons of play, the Guelph Biltmore Hat Company became the team's sponsors, and the team changed names to the Guelph Biltmore Mad Hatters.[citation needed] Guelph's best season was 1937–38, when they played in the OHA championship series for the J. Ross Robertson Cup, but lost to the Oshawa Generals.[1]
