The Ottawa Senators franchise relocated to St. Louis in the summer of 1934 due to financial losses in Ottawa.

The Eagles would take the Senators` spot in the Canadian Division, and would face numerous road trips to Montreal and Toronto throughout the season, despite being closer to Chicago and Detroit, who played in the American Division.
