More Disputes • financial disputes almost ended the NHL • The Wonders and the Senators had to drop out of the league • Not enough money • Canadians and Arenas stayed • just played each other for 2 years
The Original 6 • United States expansion teams joined the NHL • The new NHL consisted of 6 teams known as the Original 6 • Montreal Canadians (joined 1917) • Toronto Maple Leafs (joined 1917) • Boston Bruins (joined 1924) • Detroit Red Wings (joined 1926) • Chicago Black Hawks (joined 1926) • New York Rangers (joined 1926)
