The Series
The first game was played in Montreal on slushy ice caused by warmer than usual weather and the second game was played in Ottawa, to take advantage of the artificial ice.
A rookie forward named Howie Morenz scored a hat-trick in game one and a further goal in game two to lead the Canadiens. Morenz also was leveled by Calgary forward Cully Wilson in game two and suffered torn shoulder ligaments and a chipped collarbone.

Famous quotes containing the word series:
“Life ... is not simply a series of exciting new ventures. The future is not always a whole new ball game. There tends to be unfinished business. One trails all sorts of things around with one, things that simply won’t be got rid of.”
—Anita Brookner (b. 1928)
“In the order of literature, as in others, there is no act that is not the coronation of an infinite series of causes and the source of an infinite series of effects.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
