The Kitchener Greenshirts name has been used by five separate ice hockey teams playing in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada.

Senior A (c.1917 to c.1938)

[edit]
Kitchener Greenshirts in 1917–18.

The Kitchener Hockey Club, commonly known as the Kitchener Greenshirts were a senior ice hockey team. Kitchener won the J. Ross Robertson Cup in 1918 and 1928, as the senior champion of the Ontario Hockey Association (OHA).[1] Kitchener also won the 1918 Allan Cup as the national champions of Canada.[2]

Hockey Hall of Fame goaltender George Hainsworth played senior hockey for the Greenshirts from 1917 to 1923. Another Hall of Famer, Earl Seibert played one game with the team in 1928.[3]

Junior A (c.1922 to c.1938)

[edit]

The first junior ice hockey Greenshirts team played in the OHA the early 1920s to the start of World War II. This Junior A program operated in affiliation to the Senior A team of the same name.[citation needed]

The team was known as the Kitchener Colts when they won the J. Ross Robertson Cup as the OHA junior champions in 1923.[4] The Colts eventually advanced to play the University of Manitoba in a two-game, total-goals series in Toronto to decide the 1923 Memorial Cup winner. The university won consecutive 7–3 contests to capture the Cup by a total score of 14–6.[5]

The team later became the Greenshirts and were finalists for the J. Ross Robertson Cup in 1929.[4] The Greenshirts were awarded the J. Ross Robertson Cup by default in the 1934–35 season after winning a protest on the series it had lost to the Oshawa Generals.[6] The decision on the protest came too late for Kitchener to challenge the Northern Champion Sudbury Cub Wolves for the right to compete for the Memorial Cup.[7] The Greenshirts were runners-up in the J. Ross Robertson Cup finals in 1936.[4]

Five future Hockey Hall of Famers played junior hockey for the Greenshirts during this era: Bobby Bauer, Woody Dumart, Milt Schmidt, Earl Seibert & Babe Siebert.[3]
