The Pass Red Devils were a Junior A ice hockey team in the Alberta Junior Hockey League that played in the municipality of Crowsnest Pass, Alberta, from 1972 to 1976. The team relocated to nearby Pincher Creek for two years before settling in Calgary as the Calgary Spurs.

Their four-season tenure in Crowsnest Pass was mostly unsuccessful. The Red Devils never finished a season with more wins than losses and still hold the record for the worst full season in terms of wins and points in Alberta Junior Hockey League history with their 3–56–1 record in 1974–75, although the Calgary Cowboys and Drumheller Falcons recorded worse records before folding mid-season. Their 28-game losing streak that season is also still a league record[1] as 2005.

Crowsnest Pass was later represented in the AJHL by the Crowsnest Pass Timberwolves from 1998 to 2004.
