This page contains common misconceptions of what actually took place in the 1910 NHA season. Les Canadiens was not the Montreal Canadiens. Rather, the Hailbury Comets franchise was. see [1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.228.6.159 (talk) 15:07, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You've got to look at all sources. O'Brien himself is quoted that he sold the Canadiens to Kennedy. Whether the franchise transfer was structured as giving Haileybury's franchise to Kennedy, the team players and management went to Kennedy. They played in the same rink with the same nickname. So, Les Canadiens = Montreal Canadiens. The company name 'Le Club de Hockey Canadien' has been the same since 1909. Alaney2k (talk) 15:26, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
And it is known that the Haileybury club returned to the Temiscaming league in 1910-11. Alaney2k (talk) 15:30, 10 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
