Reg Noble

Edward Reginald Noble (June 23, 1895–January 19, 1962) of Collingwood, Ontario, was a Canadian professional forward who played 17 professional seasons in the National Hockey Association (NHA) and National Hockey League (NHL) for the Toronto Blueshirts, Montreal Canadiens, Toronto St. Pats, Montreal Maroons, Detroit Cougars, Detroit Falcons and Detroit Red Wings. He was a three-time winner of the Stanley Cup, with Toronto and Montreal and inductee of the Hockey Hall of Fame. He was also the last active NHL player from both the NHL's inaugural season and the 1910s.
==Playing Career==
Reg Noble started his professional career with the Toronto Blueshirts in their ill-fated season of 1916-17. The club was suspended by the league and he was assigned by the league to the Montreal Canadiens for the rest of the season. The following year, the new NHL assigned the Toronto franchise to the Toronto Arena owners and Noble signed with the team. The Blueshirts, despite the ownership difficulty and several personnel changes, won the NHL title and defeated Vancouver for the Stanley Cup championship. Noble would stay with the franchise as it became the Arenas, and later the St. Pats, eventually traded to the Montreal Maroons in the 1924-25 season. The St. Pats would win the Stanley Cup again in 1922, a season when Noble was playing coach and captain. One season after joining the Maroons, the Maroons themselves would win the Stanley Cup in 1926. In 1927, he was traded to the new Detroit franchise in the NHL, then named the Falcons. He would play for the franchise for six season, eventually returning by trade to the Maroons in 1932–33. He retired with 181 goals in 536 games in the NHA and NHL. He was inducted posthumously into the Hall of Fame in 1962.
