Two locations, both in Canada , claim the first organized game of hockey. Kingston Ontario, and Moncton New Brunswick, both claim the honour. The first game of hockey WITH WRITTEN RULES in place was played in Montreal Quebec, in 1875, by students of McGill University. They wrote the original rules that the present rules are based on. It is a Canadian game, for sure.
