Did you know that........27 Few clubs met as many chal- lenges as Ottawa's famed Silver Seven, who became the Senators in 1906. In all, Ottawa captured 9 Stanley-Cups between 1893 and 1934, when they folded and moved to St. Louis as the Eagles for 1934/35. Some famous Senators in his- tory included Punch Broadbent, Cy Dinney, Alex Connell, Frank Nighbor, Frank Boucher, Hooley Smith, Cyclone Taylor. and Clint Benedict. Ottawa's Silver Seven/Senators stand 3rd among Stanley Cup Champions in histo- ry...behind the Canadiens (23) and the Maple Leafs (13). During: the W.H.A. period, the Civics, and later the Nationals, tried to establish root in the capi- tal city. Both failed for the same reason as the oldtime Senators; a lack of fans. Page 9, News, Wednesday, February 10, 1988 If junior hockey is any indica- tion, an W.H.L. franchise for Ottawa might be viable in the future. Hull'o Olympiques and the '67s both draw well at the gate. The Eagles, as grandfather to the St. Louis Blues, lasted only one year and won fewer than 10 games, One of their players, Syd Howe (no relation to Gordie!) became a proficient scorer for the great Red Wings clubs of '36, '37, and '43, and was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. The oldest existing NHL fran- chise? That's an easy one for 'Montreal fans. The ancient blue and white Canadiens were formed in 1909 and started playing in the N.H.A. in 1910. "Les Glorieux", as the Flying Frenchmen are called today, had- n't any red in their original uni- form. "Les Tricolures" even wore a Thank You WELBOURNE The family of the late Gail Welbourne would like to express their deep appreciation and sincere thanks to all their relatives friends and neighbours of Schreiber, Terrace Bay and Thunder Bay for their sup- port and kindness during the recent loss of a wife, mother and sister.

Matys Director of Education BIRTHDATE NAME OF PARENTS TELEPHONE 29 green maple leaf one season as a crest! When the Habs won the silverware in '16, their crest was a CA rather than the familiar CH. It stood for the Canadiens' Athletic Club (in English). In 1924/25, the Habs had a globe to replace the CH. This showed they were Stanley Cup Champions and the world's champions of hockey (which they were). When Norris brought out the Red Wing uniforms in 1933, fans complained bitterly at Canadien/Red Wing matchups. The Habs and Wings both looked alike. By 1934, the Canadiens wore white uniforms at home against Detroit, and the Wings reciprocat- ed at the Olympic Stadium in Motor City. By 1944, the Canadiens often wore their famous white uniforms as visiting teams to other cities. Canadiens are not only the oldest surviving Stanley Cup champi- ons; they won their first cup before any of the surviving fran- chises of the NHL were born. Les Habitants are the most- extraordinary franchise in all pro- fessional sports; eclipsing the Yanks of baseball and the Celtics of basketball- Montreal Canadiens- the best-known sports franchise in the world. As for Ottawa, it remains a hotbed for hockey mania. Someday, the Senators may return to the NHL...at least folks in Ottawa/Hull can dream about the return to Stanley Cup glories.
