It's always great to see Jaramir Yagr's first few years in the league.

Little did they know thousands of people would be watching them ~100 years later on a tiny HD touchscreen supercomputer

Thanks for sharing. My father used to talk about "dirty" Red Horner. Dad was born in 1921 so I can imagine him listening to the radio and enjoying this game in 1933. Happy 100 this year Dad.

When a camera from 1898 has better quality than the security cameras at your local corner store

Old time hockey fact: The reason the red line is dashed or dotted rather than solid is so that viewers watching on black and white tvs back in the day could tell the difference between the blue and red lines.

Leafs losing in the playoffs even way back then

I see that goalies back in the day used the Hextall technique: Holding your stick like you’re about to hit someone. The ultimate intimidation factor

Some of this footage is better than 70s film.

In the winter of 1898, a group of ice hockey enthusiasts suited up for an outdoor game in West Orange, New Jersey. The frozen surface of Crystal Lake served as the venue for the match, which featured at least a dozen players.

One spectator of note was also in attendance at the game: cinematographer William Heise, who was employed by inventor Thomas Edison’s nearby film production studio. On that day, the studio’s film equipment was hauled to the lake, where Heise and the group of skaters unassumingly made hockey history.

This was EXCELLENT to see! What I love most about this footage is that it proves that while the game has definitely changed a bunch over the past century, its still fundamentally the same game. This in turn proves that ice hockey was excellent sports entertainment right out of the box.

If someone from the 1930s were to be transported forward in time to the present day, they'd be able to get into the groove of modern ice hockey with minimal confusion.

Can we just appreciate how nice the goal at 1:46 is for a second.

😲 These guys making low salary, wearing no helmet, little pads, and skates were like wearing old converse sneakers with dull blades, respect goes out to those players.

This is extremely interesting to watch and see just how far the NHL has grown. Please do more of these if you can find more footage!

This was an incredible watch. There may not be anything more badass than Rangers goalie Andy Aitkenhead wearing that cap during the game. Incredible compilation. Thank you for posting this.

I've seen old footage for a long time now and this is the first really old stuff that didn't look slow. The game looked very fast and reckless. Can't believe helmets weren't a thing.
