Spokane Canaries

It was decided to move the club based there, the Victoria Aristocrats, to Spokane, Washington.

The team operated without an official nickname but were dubbed the "Canaries" by a local boy after seeing their yellow and purple uniforms.

The Canaries, coached by player and team captain Lester Patrick, finished 4th and last in the league with 8 wins and 15 losses for 16 points in 23 games.

Their home games were played at the Elm Street Barn which was an outdoor arena until the late 1930s when a roof was added.
