1939-1940 Season in Review
Pittsburgh finishes first overall but in an all New York final the Rangers top the Amerks leaving both New York teams with 2 cups each.
The depression has ended but World War II has started, at least for Canada. Still attendance remains low across the league and several league owners are having capitalization problems. The Canadiens were sold again too the Canadian Arena Company. The NHL still owns the Americans with no buyers coming forward for a top franchise. Now there are rumours that MSG corp the owners of the Rangers are in financial trouble. Out in St. Louis travel costs and lack of money are impacting the Eagles ownership.
Detroit's Sivak led in goals and points while Hutton of the Amerks led in assists.
