A search on the Toronto Maple Leafs site for their http://mapleleafs.nhl.com/team/app?formids=PropertySelection&component=%24HistoricalPlayerSearchComponent.%24SimpleForm&page=TeamHistoricalPlayers&service=direct&submitmode=&submitname=&PropertySelection=2 1918-1919 roster doesn't list him.  A similar search on NHL.com was equally fruitless.  However, this is not definitive as the records from that era are likely incomplete, and sources are likely to be in newspapers.  Per , he would meet the criterion for playing at the top level of his sport.  Given that the article is brand new and has not had a chance for references to be researched, and the difficulty of doing the research, it shoulod kept to give it a chance
