The1918–19 Montreal Canadiens season was the team'stenth season and second as a member of the newNational Hockey League (NHL). The Canadiens would win the NHL title and go to Seattle to face off for theStanley Cup. However, a Spanish flu epidemic broke out in Seattle and both teams would abandon the series after several Canadiens fell ill. Montrealdefenceman Joe Hall would die from the flu.

Team business

[edit]

Prior to the season, another attempt was made byEddie Livingstone to revive theNational Hockey Association. Livingstone did not wish to sell his team for less than $20,000, more than the Arena Company was willing to pay. On September 20, 1918, the NHA owners, including the Canadiens, voted to permanently suspend the NHA. Livingstone forced another meeting on December 11, 1918, hoping to get Canadiens' minority shareholder Brunswick to vote with him, but at the meeting, Brunswick officials affirmed their loyalty to the Canadiens and the meeting ended with the Canadiens, Brunswick, Ottawa and Wanderers simply leaving the meeting.^[1]

Regular season

[edit]

Georges Vezina came second in the league in goals against average of 4.3 per game.Odie Cleghorn returned to professional play and he had an outstanding 24 goals in 17 games to lead the league in goals for the Canadiens.

TheToronto Arenas folded on March 20, 1919, leaving only Montreal and Ottawa in the league. The teams proceeded to play off for the league title.
