The 1903–04 Montreal Wanderers season was the first season of play of the new Montreal Wanderers ice hockey club of Montreal, Canada. The club won the inaugural championship of the also-new Federal Amateur Hockey League (FAHL) and challenged for the Stanley Cup. ==Team business== The club was organized from players from the Montreal Hockey Club and the Montreal Victorias. At the organizational meeting of December 3, 1903, the club selected its colours of red and white and selected the initial directors of the team: * Honorary president: George Hodge * Honorary vice-president: Clarence. D. McKerrow * President: James Strachan * Vice-president: George Guile * Secretary: Tom. J. Hodge The club had formed over a dispute over the control of the Montreal Hockey Club. The Wanderers nickname was a namesake of the Montreal Wanderers team which played in the Montreal Winter Carnival hockey tournament in 1884. The club joined with teams rejected for membership in the Canadian Amateur Hockey League (CAHL) and helped found the Federal Amateur Hockey League (FAHL) on December 5, 1903. Many of the early Wanderers had been members of the Montreal Hockey Club team of 1902, which won the Stanley Cup. That team had been known as the "Little Men of Iron" because of the players' tenacity and small stature, and the nickname carried over to the new club. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1903–04 Montreal Wanderers season」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
