My Grandpa Gumps played for Portage Lake Elks the Painsedale Panthers and other teams with his brother William, my Great Aunt Ruth played with the Sextets! Still have the picture of Aunt Joan as a baby in the MacNaughton Cup, I wonder how many Houghton County babies had their picture taken in that Cup? Thank you posting : )
Just a great Canadian documentary in general, just when you think you know your hockey history think again. A fun educational series. I've watched several times. thanks for these series of videos!!
Just watched part one, and was happy to see, part two here. Then was terrified when I saw parts 3-10 too. Who knows, there might be more, I haven't checked yet. Looks like I'm not sleeping. Hockey marathon! Thank you Canada.
Seriously what is wrong with saying I started watching the Kings when Wayne Gretzky was around that's how I fell in love with hockey? You are from America and then America it's our fourth sport so there's no shame in saying that instead you just tell lies
This is when Hockey became a money game and also its a great thing the Patrick Brothers changed the game made it better. Goal Tenders can kneel and go down anything to make a save that i agree on
When people talk about the greatest players of all time I always silently hope someone mentions Fred Taylor. It never happens sadly. The first super star of all time.
Wonderful stuff, I had no knowledge of the early days of hockey but now I know why there was a Patrick Division - presumably Mr Smythe and Mr Norris turn up a bit later?
More fitting for Pt. 1, but I was very disappointed that there was no mention of the origin and evolution of the PUCK. Did every "well-off college boy" in the late 19th century just happen to have a 1"x3" round chunk of rubber? (bless the patrick brothers)
This is very important, the puck and the hard checking are the main differences between hockey and bandy. In fact in Eurasia hockey its icepuck and bandy is iceball.
6:40 William Abraham ''Billy'' Hewitt! His son, Foster, will become the famous broadcaster for the Toronto Maple Leafs. In 1890's, Hewitt work as copyboy for the Toronto News and the editor left him in charge in a afternoon with instructions to fire a young reporter! This reporter, student in law school for University of Toronto, is the futur prime minister, William Lyon Mackenzie King.
Created the modern game .madee possible Gretzky Lemieuz Lafleur Richard.....ononon and on Soooooo can the hockey gods Not give the Canucks a Stanley cup
Cyclone Taylor, hell yeah! The beauty who brought the cup to Vancouver where it belonged! Long live the Vancouver Millionaires, and GO CANUCKS GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Suck it, haters!

Great memories of the Great game. FANTASTIC DOC.

I'm on my third time around
41:15 is the stuff of legend! I got chills when the presenter spoke of the legends of the game. Thanks for the upload!
What a great presentation. Thanks so much for posting.
brought back great memories of when i used to read stan fischeler during highschool to drown out bullying. hey it made my life brighter
I’m glad you got through that Brother. No better revenge than to live well.
Just watched part one, and was happy to see, part two here. Then was terrified when I saw parts 3-10 too. Who knows, there might be more, I haven't checked yet. Looks like I'm not sleeping. Hockey marathon! Thank you Canada.
Didier Pitre is my new hockey hero for toasting the crowd before he hits the ice.
From Los Angeles: Thank You for uploading this very interesting series! Yes, I am a long time Kings fan BEFORE Gretzky was traded.
Just like all these patriots fans before Brady

Thank you so much for posting this...
Ill never be payed to play hockey, but when i step out on ice i still feel lucky to be there.
When people talk about the greatest players of all time I always silently hope someone mentions Fred Taylor. It never happens sadly. The first super star of all time.
Yes, Fred "Cyclone" Taylor was indeed hockey's first superstar. The only Stanley Cup Vancouver has seen to this day.
Damn a puck for 15 cents and skates for 4.50 cents
When I realized that the Fred at the beginning was "Cyclone"... as a Vancouver fan, I lost my mind.
GO Wings!! YA Michigan:)

+Steve Veasey i cant remember which but i believe one of the two owned the maple leafs
+Paul H the maurice richard biopic was really good and showed u how players specifically french canadians were treated during his era.

$1 Million CAD in 1911 would be $22 Million CAD in today's money.
Left out the Livingston part of that
Nha to NHL NoHavingLivy
man the actor who plays Cyclone Taylor is way better looking than Cyclone was
TheTjoconnor buddies got wheels
8:45-10:00 I’m from Michigan-thankfully not that far north (they’re referred to as Yoopers)!

So the first major pro hockey league prior to the NHL was established in the USA not in Canada. Interesting.
