The site is fun to look at you will see some interesting names and they date back to 1917. There are more Americans listed as playing in the earlier years than you think.
Makes for fun talk. Some of the better players also chose not to go to the NHL but found good paying jobs and played for their country.

Side note: Stanley cup trivia, without using google, Which American city won the stanley cup first?

I must admit I had no Idea who the first American city to win the Stanley cup was. So ..I googled. Thank you for the suggestion now I know the answer. It was worth the effort. Never would have dreamed either the date or the City. I'm not telling ... look it up ... as greybeard says makes for fun talk!!

Great question but I will let others answer. The other one is how tall is a 10 gal milk can?
