Winnipeg 61st Battalion
61st Battalion of Winnipeg was a Canadian ice hockey team. Composed of players from the 61st Battalion of the Canadian Expeditionary Force created to participate in World War I, the team won the Pattison Trophy in 1915–16 as Manitoba provincial champions, defeating the defending champion Winnipeg Monarchs. This also gave them the Allan Cup, the senior championship trophy in Canada, for 1916. Due to the First World War they did not complete for it in 1917, and with the challenge system discarded in favour of a playoff between eastern and western teams, Winnipeg was the last to win the Cup this way.
