leafs + bruins, 1932: on their mettle

Opening Night: Boston kicked off the 1932-33 NHL season with a visit to Toronto’s Maple Leaf Gardens on the night of Thursday, November 10, 1932. Tiny Thompson was in the net for Boston, Lorne Chabot for Toronto, the defending Stanley Cup champions: both goaltenders, according to the Boston Globe, were “on their mettle.” King Clancy opened the scoring for the Leafs, Red Beattie answered for the Bruins. Overtime solved nothing; the teams settled for a 1-1 result. (Image: City of Toronto Archives, Globe and Mail fonds 1266, item 28553)
