Stewart’s Spot Unfilled; Rugged Player Is Needed
SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich.— With his World Champion Red Wings huddled here for the pre-season training camp, Manager Jack Adams spoke freely of the problems he wants to settle before they embark on the 1950-51 campaign. Problems, you’d think, are something Adams wouldn’t exactly have in any great quantity. The Wings won the National Hockey League title and the Stanley Cup playoffs last season.

Post Office Department, Ottawa. Printed in Canada Vol. 3 September 15, 1950 No. 35 With most of the snarls untangled, it now seems certain that the big-money amateur clubs across Canada will go through with the idea of a “Super Series” or “Major Series” among themselves, leaving the Allan Cup for play among clubs in smaller centres and without the heavy financial padding needed to run amateur hockey on a big time basis. And, as the “Super Series” plan progresses, the question of a suitable bit of silverware to place in competition naturally arises.
