==League business==
In the fall of 1916, the Canadian government expropriated Victoria's Patrick Arena for war-time training purposes, making the arena unavailable for ice hockey use. It was decided to move the [[Victoria Aristocrats]] to Spokane, Washington.{{sfn |Diamond |Duplacey |Zweig |2001}} This left Vancouver as the only Canadian team. The experiment in Spokane was not a success due to poor attendance. On February 15, 1917, the Spokane Arena announced that the remaining home games would be played in the other team's arenas.<ref>{{cite news |work=The Globe |title=Pro Hockey Fails to Make Good in Spokane |date=February 15, 1917 |page=9}}</ref> The final regular season game between Vancouver and Spokane was subsequently canceled.
