Playing Career
Lindsay spent three years at McGill University where he played for the school's hockey team, the McGill Redmen. He turned professional in 1910 and played two seasons for Renfrew in the NHA. When the team disbanded he moved west and joined the Victoria Aristocrats of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association (PCHA) for three seasons before returning to the NHA with the Montreal Wanderers. Lindsay stayed with the Wanderers when they joined the National Hockey League in 1917. After the Westmount Arena, the home arena of the Wanderers, burned down in January 1918, Lindsay was left without a team for the remainder of the season. He signed with the Toronto Arenas for the 1918–19 NHL season and retired when the season ended.

Famous quotes containing the words playing and/or career:
“Playing “bop” is like playing Scrabble with all the vowels missing.”
—Duke Ellington (1899–1974)
“Whether lawyer, politician or executive, the American who knows what’s good for his career seeks an institutional rather than an individual identity. He becomes the man from NBC or IBM. The institutional imprint furnishes him with pension, meaning, proofs of existence. A man without a company name is a man without a country.”
—Lewis H. Lapham (b. 1935)
