"Towards the end of February the champion Chebucto hockey team went to Montreal where they played two games for what was then the equivalent of the Stanley Cup. They lost both. As the Canadian rules differed from those in our neighborhood, one-half of each game was played under Maritime rules.
After the return of the Chebuctos, hockey playing hereabouts was changed to conform to the Canadian style. Goal-stones were now placed at right angles to the length of the rink, and the rubber puck was introduced. From samples of Montreal hockey sticks brought to Dartmouth, the Mi’kmaq at the lakes commenced making the square-edged type instead of the rounded handle."The Story of Dartmouth, John P. Martin (1957)
