At BCS he played hockey with future Victorias teammates Hartland MacDougall (no relation) and Ernie McLea.

At age twelve, MacDougall played on the BCS first team of ice hockey, and is noted as one of the youngest to ever do so.

[citation needed] Overshadowed today by the likes of teammates and Hall of Famers Graham Drinkwater and Mike Grant, MacDougall was consistently one of the Montreal Victorias' highest scoring forwards.

Later in life his career would take an approach to banking (working alongside Hartland MacDougall of no relation) and he would leave the sport of hockey near the end of the Montreal Victorias' championship run.

As Gingras was carried off the ice, referee Bill Findlay only called MacDougall for a two-minute minor.
