The Baltimore Clippers were an American ice hockey team. They were the first of three Charm City entries into the American Hockey League, who played from 1962-76. The Clippers won their division three times: 1970-71, 1971-72, and 1973-74.

The Clippers withdrew from the AHL mid-season during 1974-75 when the World Hockey Association's Michigan Stags relocated to Baltimore as the "Baltimore Blades." The team regrouped for one more season, then transferred to the Southern Hockey League, playing one more season.

The Blades team used the same set of jerseys as the Clippers. The home white jerseys had circular Blades logo sewn over the Clippers logo.

An earlier Baltimore Clippers minor league ice hockey team, in the old Eastern Hockey League, existed prior to moving to Charlotte, North Carolina in 1956 and becoming the first Charlotte Checkers.
