| - |} The Toronto Arenas, or Torontos, were a professional hockey team that played in the first two seasons of the National Hockey League's existence. It was owned and operated by the owner of Arena Gardens, the Toronto Arena Company. Due to a dispute regarding the Toronto franchise in the National Hockey Association, a temporary Toronto franchise was established in the NHL, and was intended only to be a one-year entity until the NHA franchise could be reactivated. However, this never occured. For the first season of its existence, Toronto played without an official nickname, but was dubbed the "Blueshirts" or the "Torontos" by local newspapers, as was done with previous professional hockey franchises in Toronto. After the 1917-1918 season, the dispute regarding the NHA franchise remained, so the Toronto Arena Hockey Club was formed as a temporary franchise. After another season, and the dispute still unresolved, the NHL awarded a permanent franchise to Toronto, which went on to become the Toronto St. Patricks, and later the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1927.
- The Toronto Arenas, Toronto Blueshirts or Torontos was a professional team that played in the first two seasons of the National Hockey League (NHL). It was operated by the owner of the Arena Gardens, the Toronto Arena Company. (Arena Co.) As the ownership of the National Hockey Association (NHA) Toronto Blueshirts franchise was in dispute, the new NHL league was started, and a temporary Toronto franchise was operated. The NHL itself was intended to only be a one-year entity until the NHA could be reactivated, although it never was. For the first season, the team operated without a formal organization separate from the Arena Co. and without an official club nickname, although the press would dub the team the "Blue Shirts" or "Torontos". The Torontos, the NHL's first Stanley Cup champions 1917-1918. The dispute dragged into the 1918–1919 season, so for the 1918–1919 season the Toronto Arena Hockey Club was formed to operate the temporary franchise. After the 1918–19 season, the dispute was still unresolved, so a new permanent franchise would be sold for Toronto. This new franchise was named the Toronto St. Patricks, and would later become the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1927.
