Michigan

Following the government's orders prohibiting operation of artificial ice rinks during the war due to the use of chemicals needed for war purposes, the Detroit Arena was closed and turned into a dancing garden. The Detroit Community Hockey League was formed, with plans to play games outdoors. Due to weather conditions, only three are recorded to have taken place. The American Soo Nationals had a very strong independent team, and even challenged for the Allan Cup, emblematic of the Canadian senior amateur championship, but were rejected.

New York

With the St. Nichols Rink being used for roller skating and dancing, the Brooklyn Ice Palace was the only indoor rink open in New York, and as a result, not much hockey was played in the state this winter. The Long Island Interscholastic Hockey League was staged at the Brooklyn Ice Palace. The Western New York Interscholastic Hockey League was contested in Buffalo. The University of Buffalo had a hockey team again for the first time in many years.
