What were the first NHL hockey teams?
First NHL Teams Many cite an six original NHL hockey teams:Montreal CanadiensToronto Maple LeafsBoston BruinsDetroit Red WingsChicago Black HawksNew York RangersHere is more of the story.In 1917, four teams -- the Montreal Canadiens, Montreal Wanderers, Ottawa Senators and Quebec Bulldogs -- joined together to form the National Hockey League. Since the Bulldogs were unable to play during the league's inaugural season, the remaining owners granted a temporary franchise to the Toronto Arena Company in order to balance out the schedule. This "temporary" franchise becames the Toronto St. Patricks in 1919, (the same season charter member Quebec was finally able to resume operations) and the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1926.In that first season, after just six games, the Wanderers' rink burned to the ground, and the team "wandered" out of the league, never to be heard from again.The Quebec Bulldogs became the Hamilton Tigers lasted 5 seasons in the early 20s. Then the Montreal Maroons and the Boston Bruins were born, and the "traditional" NHL takes shape in the 1930s. The Montreal Maroons actually enjoyed some success until the 1930s.For those looking for a list of 12, they would be:Toronto ArenasMontreal CanadiensOttawa SenatorsMontreal WanderersQuebec BulldogsHamilton TigersMontreal MaroonsBoston Bruins (The franchise dates from 1924.)Pittsburgh PiratesNew York AmericansDetroit Red WingsChicago Black HawksThat brings us to 1926-27, by the way. Thanks to the NHL Official Guide and Record Book, for the exact team names.The Senators became defunct in 1933-34, and the current franchise took the same name 60 years later.
Length of an NHL hockey game?
Regulation time for a hockey game is 60 minutes (three 20-minute periods). If the teams are tied after regulation time, overtime rules vary by league. In NHL regular season games, they play a sudden death 5-minute OT period with the teams playing 4-on-4 instead of 5-on-5 (reducing the players opens up the ice in an effort to produce a goal that will end the game). If the teams are still tied after the 5-minute OT period, the teams then move on to a three round shootout. After three rounds, the team with the most goals scored wins the game. If they are still tied after three rounds, then the shootout moves to sudden death and the teams will alternate shooters until one team scores and the other team fails to score. In NHL Stanley Cup playoff games, there are no shootouts and all OT periods are 5-on-5, sudden death, and 20-minutes in length (a regular period). Teams continue playing until a goal is scored. The longest ever NHL game was a triple OT, 116 minute-30 second, 1-0 win by Detroit over Montreal in 1936.
