Americans and Black Hawks Tie 1-1 to Open NHL Season
The Chicago Black Hawks and New York Americans battled to a 1-1 overtime tie at Chicago Stadium before 13 500 fans. Bill Kendall scored for the Hawks from Louis Trudell about nine minutes into the second period, and Harry Oliver tied it with an assist from Lloyd Jackson less than six minutes later. The game featured 11 penalties as the league contends with owner William Dwyer over franchise control while the NHL had taken over operations two weeks earlier. A Canadian court order briefly restrained the Americans from playing under the league banner, forcing them to perform as the New York Americans Hockey Club with Dwyer as president.
