  1. How come the canadiens aren’t listed as Montreal? Rangers and Americans were both from New York so their naming makes sense

  2. Americans where the Brooklyn Americans that became the New York Americans after folding the next season due to financial constraints because of WWII had broken out. The 1942/43 season was the inception of the original 6 and the Stanley Cup was won by Detroit over Boston .
