Grand'Mere HC won the Eastern Section of the IPAHU in 1910–11 but eventually lost in the IPAHU finals to the Ottawa New Edinburghs of the Central Section 9 goals to 16 (5-7, 4-9) over two games on March 11 and 15, 1911.

The team's biggest star offensively was right winger Harry McLaughlin who turned down offers to turn professional with the Quebec Bulldogs and the Toronto Ontarios of the National Hockey Association (NHA) in 1912–13 and 1913–14.
