  • How the Forward Pass Killed Joe Hall
    How the forward pass killed Joe Hall By Craig Bowlsby Craig Bowlsby is the author of several books, including “Empire of Ice, The Rise and Fall of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association, 1911‐1926” and “1913: The Year They Invented the Future of Hockey.” He lives in Vancouver B.C. To purchase copies, please contact the author at [email protected] The Seattle Metropolitans of 1917, who helped change hockey by using the forward pass to win the Stanley Cup. Photo courtesy of David Eskenazi Hockey Hall of Famer “Bad” Joe Hall died in Seattle during the Stanley Cup finals of 1919. But it wasn’t just the Spanish flu that killed him. Another culprit was the forward pass, a new tactic that was born 100 years ago. On March 19, 1919 the Montreal Canadiens met the Seattle Metropolitans in Seattle for the Stanley Cup. Though no one realized it at the time, the Seattle Arena on Fifth Avenue was a stage prepared for disaster. Hall was a relatively new member of the Canadiens, but at 37, he was at the end of his career. The three‐time Stanley Cup winner was known mostly for his ability to hack and punch his opponents, yet he was a formidable defenseman who was widely respected as a tough competitor. The 1919 Cup final was played on the West Coast despite a population reeling from one of the worst plagues it had ever known. Though at least 10 million had already died worldwide, by the fall of 1918, the worst was thought to be over and hockey arenas were opened again after being quarantined for about eight months.

  • “Cully” Wilson Cully Wilson Had Already Established a Reputation As a Loose Cannon Before Coming out West to Play in the PCHA
    Carol “Cully” Wilson Cully Wilson had already established a reputation as a loose cannon before coming out west to play in the PCHA. Over the course of three seasons with the Toronto Blueshirts of the NHA he showed that not only was he a talented forward, but he could also dish out the rough stuff with the best of them. During his final full season with the Blueshirts (1914-15) he scored 22 goals and led the league with 138 penalty minutes… in only 20 games! Wilson defected to the PCHA with five of his Toronto teammates for the 1915-16 season, ending up in Seattle with the new Metropolitans franchise. Cully quickly became Seattle’s first hockey “bad boy” – he holds the dubious distinction of not only taking the first penalty in franchise (and Seattle hockey) history, but he was also the first Seattle skater to be ejected from a game… all of which happened in the first game of the season! He continued to run roughshod over the rest of the league finishing the season with 57 penalty minutes (in 18 games), not only leading the team but also accounting for over 40% of its penalties. A leg injury kept Cully out of the lineup for nine games in 1916-17, but he still managed to lead the Mets with 58 penalty minutes. He was healthy for the Stanley Cup Finals against Montreal but saw limited ice time in the series and played mostly as a substitute, though he did score a goal in the second game. Wilson got off to a quick start in 1917-18, beating Smoky Harris of Vancouver unconscious in the season opener.
