1937-1938 Season Review

The Rangers and Chicago won their divisions but Detroit and Boston made the final with Boston claiming their third cup!

R. Jones of Chicago led in goals and points and Moell Lindgren of the Rangers led in assists.

Chicago’s Todd O’Branagan won his 5th defenceman of the year award at 28 years old scoring 56 points (a record for D-men) and finishing at +20 in 48 games.

Defenceman Gabriel Bourdages of Boston wins rookie of the year tying the rookie points record at 48.

Montreal ownership has announced their intention to merge the 2 Montreal teams under the Wanderes name, as that was their original team and suspending the Canadiens franchise. Stafford Smythe of Toronto is strongly urging the League to step in a preserve the Canadiens name instead due to their Stanley Cup history. Which side do we back? Should we be active in seeking buyers for whichever franchise becomes dormant? Cleveland interests were seeking to buy the Canadiens previously.

The Amerks issues continue on. We’re going to keep operating them in New York for now. We have Montreal to deal with. Can you imagine operating with only 8 teams? Or 6?

James E. Norris Red wings Owner now owns Chicago Stadium as of last year. We’re also pretty sure he’s been loaning the Bruins Owners money. Does he think NHL stands for Norris House League?

The International-American Hockey League has begun as a merger between the old IHL and the Canadian-American Hockey League.

Tropical Hockey League? Rumour has it scouts are making the rounds in Manitoba and NW Ontario recruiting for a semi-pro league based out of Miami? Can you imagine, hockey in Miami?
