 | | In the 1916-17 NHA season, there were six teams that comprised the NHA: the Montreal Canadiens, the Montreal Wanderers, the Ottawa Senators, the Quebec Bulldogs, the Toronto Blueshirts, and an army team from the 228th Battalion, stationed in Toronto. |
 | | On November 26, 1917, in Montreal's Windsor Hotel, the National Hockey League was formed, with the Canadiens, the Wanderers, the Senators, the Bulldogs, and the newly-renamed Toronto Arenas as its founding members. |
 | | By then, the Wanderers were but a shadow of what they used to be - on January 2, 1918, in the NHL's first season, the Montreal Arena, home to both the Canadiens and Wanderers, was burned to the ground. |
