Ice Hockey on Lac Édouard
BAnQ Rouyn-Noranda, Rouyn-Noranda 50th Anniversary Committee Fonds (P117, S2, P2263).
From an unknown photographer, this picture was taken in 1926 or 1927.
The first hockey league in Rouyn-Noranda had four teams : the Copperfields, the Tigers and the Rouyn Shamrocks as well as Team Noranda. The first game took place on the Édouard Lake ice on January 1st 1926. The Copperfields had the upper-hand on the Tigers with a final score of 5-1. However, it is impossible to be sure if this picture was that particular game, but it was a real hockey game on Édouard Lake around that time.
