Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds (original senior)

This article is about the original senior team that played from the late 1910's to the early 1930's, for the second senior team that played in the 1940's and 1950's please see Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds (senior).
The Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds were a men's senior team that existed from 1919 until 1932. The team was based out of the Gouin Street Arena in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. The team ceased operations after the 1931-32 playing season and was replaced by a junior team with the same name.
The first Greyhounds team formed in 1919, playing in the now defunct Upper-Peninsula League. The team's coach was George McNamara. He suggested the team be called the Greyhounds since, "a greyhound is much faster than a wolf." That reference was to the already established rival club, the Sudbury Wolves.
A couple of seasons later, the Greyhounds switched to the Northern Ontario Hockey Association Senior "A" division. The team won the Senior A championship in 1921, 1923, 1924 and 1925. The 1924 Greyhounds also won the Allan Cup, becoming the only team from Sault Ste. Marie to do so. In October 1925, the club received an offer from New York to play as the Knickerbockers in the Eastern Amateur Hockey League. The Greyhounds joined the Central Amateur Hockey Association, a division of the United States Amateur Hockey Association for the 1925–26 season. After the season, several players joined the professional ranks and the team folded.
