244th Battalion

The 244th Battalion of the Canadian Army was raised in Montreal in the spring of 1916 and sailed to Europe to World War I in April 1917. As was typical of Canadian military units of the time, the battalion entered a hockey team in a local league.
In this case the 244th entered a team in the Montreal City Hockey League in 1916-17. The team finished in 6th and last place with a 2-7-1 record.
