1978–79 Minnesota North Stars season
The 1978–79 Minnesota North Stars season was the team's 12th season in the NHL. In the off season, the North Stars were on the verge of folding, and were merged with the Cleveland Barons, another team on the brink of collapse. The merged franchise continued as the Minnesota North Stars, with the old logo and colors. The changes for the franchise were new ownership and new management. Former Cleveland Barons General Manager Harry Howell assumed the coaching duties from Lou Nanne, who was named General Manager. Former Barons owner George Gund III became a co-owner of the North Stars. Howell's tenure as head coach would last just eleven games before he was replaced by Glen Sonmor.
