Montreal Hockey Arena
how cool would it be if some of the short lived franchises from the early days were still around?
for example:
montreal wanderers
montreal maroons
toronto arenas/st pats
toronto ontarios/tecumsehs/shamrocks
original ottawa senators
new york/brooklyn americans
we way more intra-city rivalries, which are the best (rangers v. islanders and rangers v. devils are the best rivalries in north american sports). 2 or 3 teams in toronto? 3 teams in montreal?! 4 teams in new york?!? now that would make for some good hockey.
I was just the other day saying to a friend that I wished the Canadiens were still called the maroons so after they lose I could say “Haha, they lost to the Oilers, what a bunch of maroons!!, lol”

Along with the Montreal Maroons , the Bruins were the first expansion franchise in the NHL and the league s first American-based club. The Bruins finished sixth and last in the league standings. Regular season 1924 25 NHL season Despite problems with the ice plant that threatened the home opener the Bruins started the season out auspiciously, defeating their fellow expansion Maroons squad in a nearly sold out Boston Arena 2-1; the first goal in franchise history was scored by Smokey Harris , while Carson Cooper , who assisted on Harris’ goal, scored the game winner. However, Boston lost its next eleven games, as well as having a seven game losing streak, and finished in the basement. The Bruins had signed veteran West Coast star goaltender Hec Fowler as their netminder, but behind a weak defense, Fowler and backup Howie Lockhart played very poorly and the Bruins were repeatedly shelled, allowing ten goals in a game twice, one of which saw Toronto player Babe Dye score five goals on December 22. The signing of senior league star netminder Doc Stewart and the purchase of Lionel Hitchman helped somewhat, |

Excerpt: The Bell Centre (French : Le Centre Bell ), formerly known as the Molson Centre (French : le Centre Molson ), is a sports and entertainment complex in Montreal , Quebec . It has been the home of the National Hockey League ‘s Montreal Canadiens hockey team since March 16, 1996, when they hosted the New York Rangers (a game which the Canadiens won 4 2). The team departed from the historic Montreal Forum after their last game on March 11 of the same year. Construction began on the site on June 22, 1993, 13 days after the Canadiens defeated the Los Angeles Kings at the Forum for their 24th and most recent Stanley Cup . The name of the arena initially reflected Molson , Inc., a brewing company which was owner of the Canadiens at the time. Some members of Montreal sports media, namely Jack Todd , pushed for the nickname “The Keg” as fitting for the new arena but it was never widely adopted. Molson elected not to keep the naming rights when they sold the team and the name was officially changed on September 1, 2002, after Bell Canada acquired the naming rights. Since it opened in 1996, it has consistently been listed as one of the world’s busiest arenas, usually receiving the highest attendance of any arena in Canada. In 2008, it was the 6th busiest arena in the world based on ticket sales for non-sporting events. The Bell Centre is currently owned by a partnership group headed by Geoff Molson and his brothers, Andrew and Justin. The group also owns the Montreal Canadiens .

Sport In Washington $14.14 Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: The Spokane Chiefs are a major junior ice hockey team that plays in the Western Hockey League based out of Spokane, Washington. The team plays its home games at the Spokane Arena. Their uniforms are similar to those of the NHL’s Montreal Canadiens. Spokane consistently ranks in the top 10 in the Canadian Hockey League in attendance. The Chiefs won the Memorial Cup in 1991 and 2008. The Chiefs line up for a game with the Tri-City Americans.The Spokane Chiefs was also the name of the hockey team that played in the Western International Hockey League from 1982 to 1985. In their final year the Chiefs were the regular-season champions of the WIHL. The current franchise was granted in 1982 to Kelowna, British Columbia as the Kelowna Wings. In 1985, the team relocated to Spokane, Washington and became the Chiefs. Before the Spokane Chiefs, there was another WHL franchise in Spokane, the Spokane Flyers, which played between 1980-1982. The Chiefs won the WHL and CHL Memorial Cup championships in 1991 and 2008. In addition, they have won two division titles and four Western Conference championships. The Chiefs and Portland Winter Hawks are the only United States based teams to win the Memorial Cup. The Chiefs are also the only team in the history of the Western Hockey League to come back from an 0-3 deficit to win a best-of-seven series, which they did against the Portland Winter Hawks in 1996. The 1991 Memorial Cup team included future NHL players: Ray Whitney, Pat Falloon, Trevor Kidd, Jon Klemm, and Scott Bailey. This team of future NHL’ers blew through the Memorial Cup Tournament, scoring a goal in the first couple of minutes of virtually every game. The Chiefs’ move to the new Spokane Arena in 1995 proved to be good luck. Along with being called the gem of the Western Hockey League, the Arena hosted many memorable events in the first year and saw the Chiefs win 50 games and advance to the |
