The 'Bread Line' was one of the most famous lines of his era, with the brothers Mac Colville (centre), Neil Colville ( right-wing) and Alex Shibicky (left-wing). The line's nickname came from sportswriters who said the trio was the New York Rangers "bread and butter". At the time of their formation, in 1936, they were the youngest line in the National Hockey League. Mac Colville was 20, Neil Colville and Shibicky were both 22. They were also known as the 'Prairie Boys' because all three hailed from western Canada.

Prince George, British Columbia, Canada. The Prince George OldTimers Hockey Association (PGOHA) was incorporated in the summer of 1978 with two teams. The league quickly expanded to 4 teams in 1980.

One of two conferences of the NHL introduced in the 1974-75 season. It had two divisions.
i. From 1974-75 to 1980-81 they were the Norris Division and the Adams Division.
ii. From 1981-82 to 1992-93 they were the Adams Division and the Patrick Division.

The Prince of Wales trophy was donated to the NHL by His Royal Highness, the Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII), in 1924.
i. From the 1923-24 to 1925-26 seasons, the trophy was awarded to the NHL playoff champions. The winners of the playoffs would then contest the Stanley Cup with the playoff champions of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association/Western Canada Hockey League. However, at the end of the 1924-25 regular season, third placed Montreal Canadiens played against second placed Toronto St Patricks in a total goals series. Montreal won the series and was awarded the Prince of Wales Trophy. The winners of that series were to go on and play the first placed Hamilton Tigers for the right to play for the Stanley Cup but the Hamilton players demanded $200 each for the extra games to be played and the league threatened to suspend the players and the team. Efforts to reach a compromise failed and the Tigers were suspended. Montreal went on to play for the Stanley Cup against the Western Canada Hockey League Victoria Cougars.
ii. From the 1926-27 to 1937-38 seasons, the trophy was presented to the team finishing first in the American Division of the NHL.
iii. From the 1938-39 to 1966-67 seasons, the trophy was awarded to the NHL league champions.
iv. From the 1967-68 to 1973-74 seasons, it again became a divisional trophy which was awarded to the regular-season champions of the East Division.
v. From the 1974-75 to 1980-81, it was awarded to the regular-season winner of the Prince of Wales Conference.
vi. From the 1981-82 to 1992-93 seasons, the trophy was presented to the playoff champion in the Prince of Wales Conference.
vii. Since the 1993-94 season, the trophy has been presented to the playoff champion in the Eastern Conference.
