Very cool program, Jonathan. I live in Victoria and less than a mile from the site of the Patrick Arena where the Cougars played. Following the 1926 season they became the Detroit Cougars and eventually the Detroit Red Wings. The attached snaps are of a commemorative cairn on the grounds of Oak Bay Secondary across the street from the old rink. The other is a display at the municipal hall to which I contributed some old hockey postcards. The Cougars remain the only team from British Columbia to have won the Stanley Cup. Still waiting on the Canucks.
