This is from a newspaper article after Montreal beat Ottawa 3-1 after the first Stanley Cup.
"The hockey championship was decided tonight, and never before in the history of the game was there so large a crowd or so much enthusiasm. There were fully five thousand persons present at the match; and the tin horns, strong lungs and a general rabble predominated. The match resulted in favor of Montreal by three goals to one. The referee forgot to see many things. The ice was fairly good."
The referee forgot to see many things.... somethings never change
