I have a copy of this picture, it has been in my family for many years. My father, John "Stubby " Longmoore 3rd player from the right in the second row was an 18 year old backup goalie to Flat Walsh. A message on the back of the card from my father's sister to their grandparents in Chatham describes my father going to Toronto and having this picture taken with the team in front of the Toronto rink. It was postmarked in the Soo on March 26, 1923.

I also have an article from the Christian Science monitor of March 12, 1923 describing the second game of a 2 game series between the Soo and the Toronto Granites as part of qualification for the Allan Cup. The Granites went on to win the Allan Cup that year. The Soo team were champions of the N.O.H.A for 1922-23. They won the first game 3-1 but lost the second 5-1 and lost on total goals 7-4.

The Newspaper article summary includes members of the team playing in the game

I have lots of stuff - articles, photos - I can pull out on the Greyhounds from the early 1920's. My grandfather is Jim Fahey. I will add some images to this page when I get a chance. I am also trying to fill in some gaps in the info I have so any articles people can share would be greatly appreciated.
