One blustery winter of eighteen-eighty-six in the home of John Louie, and Isobel Stanley Creightion, a gathering of mostly men discuss the various games played on ice with sticks and a disc. Their concern is the various rules followed by different teams in different areas of the country and in that of the world. The men decide that a set of rules should be drawn up for everyone to follow. They also decide to define the way the game should be played. Of most importance is the name to be associated with the game. Beware of the influence and suffrage of women making a stand in society and evolution in history. Many a man, woman and child of Canada's landscape of snow and frozen ponds has contributed to the history in the making of a Hockey Night in Canada.
