The Western Canada Hockey League / WCHL champion Calgary Tigers were in Montreal, Quebec to play Montreal Canadiens for the Stanley Cup championship best of 3 games in March, 1924.

The first game on March 22nd was played in Montreal's Mount Royal Arena on slushy natural ice caused by warmer than usual weather with a score 6-1 Canadiens.

The second game on March 25 was moved to Ottawa Auditorium in Ottawa, Ontario to take advantage of the artificial ice and had a score 3-0 Canadiens.

Rookie forward Howie Morenz scored a hat trick in game one, including the game winner and another goal in game two to lead the Canadiens. Morenz also was leveled by Calgary defenceman Herb Gardiner in game two and suffered torn shoulder ligaments and a chipped collarbone. Red Dutton played a robust game for Calgary in a losing cause and Joliat and Billy Boucher were hard pressed to get scoring chances. Georges Vezina was brilliant in getting his 3-0 shutout victory that brought the Stanley Cup to Montreal for the first time in eight years.
