The development of the modern game centered on Montreal. On March 3, 1875 the first organized indoor game was played at Montreal's Victoria Rink by James Creighton and several McGill University students.
In 1943, the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association declared Kingston the birthplace of hockey, based on a recorded 1886 game played between students of Queen's University and the Royal Military College of Canada.
Based on Haliburton's writings, there have been claims that modern ice hockey originated in Windsor, Nova Scotia, and was named after an individual, as in 'Colonel Hockey's game'.
The Society for International Hockey Research contends, based on a Boston Evening Gazette article from 1859, that an early game of hockey on ice occurred in Halifax in that year. The first game to use a puck rather than a ball took place in 1860 on Kingston Harbour, involving mostly Crimean War veterans.
so i believe that the modern rules come from the students at McGill University, but its hard to say exactly where the first game was played they have claimes in 4 city's that have good evadence but not 100% sure. they are McGill University, Kingston Ontario, Windsor Nova Scotia, and Halifax. I live in Kingston Ontario and get to see the same rivalry every year between the Queen's University and the Royal Military College of Canada.
we just need to stop about which city played the first game and just say the first game was played in Canada period its are game the best game on earth.

There's records that boys were playing "hurley on the ice" in Windsor, Nova Scotia around 1800. But modern hockey began with McGill students in Montreal in 1875.
