International Hockey Festival the Plains of Abraham: When History Catches up with the Present PRESS RELEASE For immediate release International Hockey Festival The Plains of Abraham: when history catches up with the present Québec, January 18, 2011 – Nearly 100 years after the Stanley Cup was first seen on the Plains of Abraham, the National Battlefields Commission is proud to welcome on these grounds the 3rd International Hockey Festival, to be held next February 4 to 6 during the Québec Winter Carnival. We would like to remind you that it was at the Quebec Skating Rink (Pavillon des patineurs), located on the Plains of Abraham, that the Quebec Bulldogs played in the Amateur Hockey Association of Canada. Led by their star player Joe Malone, the Québec City team won the prestigious Stanley Cup twice, during the 1911-12 and 1912-13 seasons. Malone, a Québec City native, quickly earned the respect of supporters and other league players for his scoring talent, as well as for his impressive game style. In 1918, the building, which could accommodate nearly 2,000 spectators, was destroyed by fire. A stone’s throw from this historical Mecca, amateur hockey players will confront each other for three consecutive days during the greatest festive hockey event in the world. Sports fans are invited to enjoy the enchanting site of the Plains of Abraham when they come to visit. All kinds of entertainment are offered, including cross-country skiing and snowshoeing (if weather permits), the Odyssey multimedia exhibition, as well as a guided snowshoe tour of the park exploring the history of the sport on the Plains of Abraham.

But most training camps are held in September, before an NHL season, and last nearly a month. They also include five or six preseason games, and after that goalies might still need a couple of more weeks of playing regularly to hone their timing and puck-tracking skills.

    Annex of visual documents and links for LES “Who Controls the Puck” Please respect individual image and website licensing conditions, which vary depending on each source. Early Professional Hockey Professional hockey began around the turn of the Twentieth Century. For a time, players were secretly paid under the table, but soon hockey embraced full professionalism. The early years of hockey were marked by clubs being formed and then folding, and of players jumping from team to team in search of better pay. For a short time in 1909 two rival leagues, both centred on Montreal, competed for talent and spectators. In the end only the National Hockey Association would survive. With less demand for players, salaries started to fall and the association reduced the number of players to six from seven in order to save on salaries. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Ottawa-Hockey-Club-1909.jpg Interview with Fred "Cyclone" Taylor Q. Why did you leave that success (Stanley Cup with Ottawa 1909) to go to Renfrew the next season? A. Money, pure and simple. The Renfrew Creamery Kings gave me a salary of five thousand, two hundred and fifty dollars for a two-month, twelve-game season. The O’Brien family had made big money in mining and they wanted a team that could win the Stanley Cup/ You must remember how much money five thousand, two hundred and fifty dollars was in 1908. My father was a salesman for a farm implement company and, if I remember right, he made ninety dollars a month as his top salary… Q.
