We have heard some of the old
er fans tell of how they boarded a
train or pulled the old Model “T”
through snowdrifts to see “Heiny”,
“Big Dodo and Little Dodo” and
the rest of the gang in action.
From this team one player
particular made himself famous
a hockey player. He was the late
“Babe” Siebert, of Zurich, who
played with the Montreal Maroons
and later with the Canadiens. In
1922 he played on a line with
“Little Dodo” Hoffman and Mc
Kinnon. Patrolling the defense
was “Big Dodo” Hoffman and Hind
marsh and in the nets was the small
but mighty Cook, as he was called.
