6. Preston Rivulettes "Between 1930 and 1940, the team played an estimated 350 games. [2] They lost only two and tied three. For the entire decade of the 1930s, the Rivulettes were the winners of the Bobby Rosenfeld Trophy. The trophy was given to the Ontario champions. In addition, the Rivulettes were six time winners of the Eastern Canadian championship and the Elmer Doust Cup (the honour for winning the Eastern Canadian championship). The team also won the Lady Bessborough Trophy (given to Canadian Champions) six times. [2] The Rivulettes were invited to play games in 1939 in Europe, but were unable to due to the start of World War II. In 1963, the club was inducted into the Canadian Hockey Hall of Fame."World War II Text and image source: : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preston_Rivulettes See also Queens of the Ice Lanes full article at https://www.uleth.ca/dspace/bitstream/handle/10133/2550/queens%20of%20the%20ice.pdf

8. Great Depression hard on Maroons "In Montreal, financial strains from the Great Depression hurt the attendances of both the Canadiens and Maroons. However, there were far more francophone supporters for the Canadiens than anglophone supporters for the Maroons.[25] As a result, the Maroons finished with the worst attendance in the league, three seasons in a row. Also, by 1935, both teams were owned by Canadian Arena Company. (Ernest Savard and Maurice Forget, who owned the Canadiens, were part of the Canadian Arena Company, as were Maroons owners James Strachan and Donat Raymond). It became obvious that only one team could represent Montreal. The Maroons' dire financial straits caused them to sell off several players, including star winger Hooley Smith.[25] Despite the Maroons' financial troubles, they continued to play competitive hockey well into the 1930s Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal_Maroons Images source: http://www.flickr.com/photos/boston_public_library/5817947103/ File name: 08_06_011948 Title: Stars - Montreal Maroon Creator/Contributor: Jones, Leslie, 1886-1967 (photographer) Copyright © Leslie Jones.

10. Maroons finally fold in 1939 "The Maroons officially folded May 13 1939. 1938-1996: In the years after Maroons folded the Canadiens, were left to represent Montreal, which was upended by Toronto as the largest city in Canada during the 1970's. Through these years Anglo hockey fans in Montreal either found themselves weaning onto the Habs or found themselves becoming Toronto Maple Leaf fans. Meanwhile the Montreal Forum, which was built specifically for the Maroons, would become the most famous venue in hockey as the Canadiens set a record with 24 Stanley Cup Championships with hockey heroes that will become legends throughout Canada, as the Maroons would be forgotten."

16. Five things to know about... the 1932-33 Season ! On May 10, 1932, as they faced the Great Depression head on, NHL owners were willing to do anything to keep costs down. It was a far cry from todays world of collective bargaining, so six months before the 1932-33 season began, owners unilaterally determined that there would be a $70,000 salary cap for the upcoming season. The maximum salary for any single player would be $7,500. In addition, the league allowed only one of two temporarily suspended franchises, the Ottawa Senators, to return for 1932-33. It also cut the maximum number of skaters in uniform from 14 to 13 per game, and arranged working agreements with the AHL and WPHL to prevent those leagues from threatening to poach its players for higher salaries. These moves were meant to cut potential losses in a miserable economy, but many of the top players didnt appreciate them. One outspoken critic of the new policy was Rangers star Frank Boucher, who had held out for more money the year before and was prepared to do it again. By the time training camp opened in Lake Placid, Boucher and teammate Earl Seibert were AWOL. Boucher wanted the maximum salary, and Seibert wanted a substantial raise that was not possible under the new cap. On Oct. 31, with 10 prominent NHL players still holding out and the season less than two weeks away, the league declared it would block any players who refused to report to their teams from playing in any professional league. The following day, Boucher said the Rangers had given him permission to personally work out a deal in which he could be traded to another team, and that he would try to end up in his hometown of Ottawa. Rangers President Col. John S. Hammond denied that Boucher had complete free rein, and a war of words erupted in the newspapers until a one-year deal was agreed to on Nov. 7. Boucher reported to training camp, which was wrapping up in Springfield, Mass., and immediately caught the flu. He would miss the first two games of the season with his illness. Seibert, on the other hand, missed the first three games simply because he refused to sign the contract offered to him. On Nov. 11, NHL President Frank Calder told Seibert he would be suspended from all professional hockey until he reported to the Rangers. On Nov. 12, Seibert sat out the Rangers opener in Montreal, and was officially suspended. With nowhere else to go, he eventually signed on Nov. 23 and played in a 1-1 tie with Chicago on Nov. 24 at MSG. Players weren't the only ones affected by the economic concerns. League cost-cutting continued even after all the holdouts had signed. Perhaps the most notable midseason change was the NHLs decision to reduce the number of referees in a game from two to one on Jan. 4, 1933. The second referee became a lower- paid judge of play, or what we now know as linesmen. Decades would pass before the NHL returned to a two-referee system.

19. War And Hockey History "The NHL has continued play through many conflicts, with the two World Wars having the most profound effect on the league. Many players interrupted their careers, either voluntarily or through conscription, for military service. With so many players serving during World War II, the NHL debated shutting the league down. But at the urging of both the Canadian and US governments, the NHL announced prior to 1942-43 season that the league would continue to operate "in the interest of public morale."

20. Hockey in time of War (WWII) In all, over 100 NHL regulars or prospects from all of the NHL teams were called up or enlisted voluntarily in the Canadian or US Armed Forces during the Second World War. Of course, everybody probably had in mind that the players who joined could face the dangers of war. Some would be injured and others would make the ultimate sacrifice. While many NHL players were in the armed forces, a great number of those who remained worked in various war factories in the off-season and during the season. During the Canadiens Stanley Cup winning season of 1943-44, the team held its practices in the evenings so that the players could work at their wartime day jobs.
