The Stanley Cup Connection

Don't forget to steam over to the Boer War pagesIn 1899 the Boer War took much from the city's hockey program. The contests that did happen from 1899 to 1902 were held to local competition, each year of the conflict had the Mohawks as champions.


Did You Know?
The Stanly Cup was purchased for $50.00 and donated by Lord Stanley for the 1892 - 93 season. However, the first winner's name was not engraved until 1894 - The Montreal Amateur Athletic Association.

The Stanly CupAnother good year for hockey for Saint John was 1903. It saw the formation of the New Brunswick Hockey League. The league included teams from Marysville, Saint John, St. Stephen, and Fredericton. In 1905 the Moncton Victorias joined the New Brunswick league and began to dominate the league. In 1910 the Maritime Professional League was formed and the the Victorias dominated that league as well. Although Saint John did not enter this league, it is a point of interest to know that New Brunswick had a team that played for the Stanley Cup. The Stanley Cup you ask? Yes the Stanley Cup. In 1912 the Victorias played Quebec from the old National Hockey Association. Although they put up a valiant effort, they lost the series 9-3 and 8-0.
