Plaque Text
In January, 1907, a hockey team from Kenora, comprising E. Girouz (goal), A.H. Ross (point), S.I. Griffis (cover point), T. Hooper (rover), W. McGimsie (centre), R. Beaudro (right wing) and T. Phillips (captain and left wing), defeated the Montreal Wanderers in two challenge games at Montreal to win the Stanley Cup. The team was coached and trained by the Governor General, Baron Stanley of Preston, in 1892. Kenora is the smallest town to ever win the Cup.
