Claim: During the 1909 National Hockey Association season, Montreal Wanderers whose captain is Newsy Lalonde won more matches than Ottawa Hockey Club and Renfrew Creamery Kings.
Evidence: The 1910 NHA season was the first season of the National Hockey Association men's professional ice hockey league. 
The year 1910 saw the foundation of the National Hockey Association (NHA), precursor to the NHL, and Lalonde joined the Montreal Canadiens for their first season. Halfway through the season, the Habs traded him to the Renfrew Creamery Kings, for whom Lalonde led the league in scoring.
