The Montreal game will be played at the Boston Garden on Thursday night at 8:30 and the McGill game at the Garden on Saturday night. The latter contest arrays the Crimson sextet against one of the most formidable college hockey teams ever developed. In its two opening games McGill defeated Montreal 9-0 and Princeton 10-0.
