In 1884, the Ottawa Hockey Club the first team from outside Montreal played in the tournament. For this tournament, the location changed to a rink made on the McGill University grounds. In 1886, the Quebec Hockey Club joined the tournament line-up.
The 1884 tournament saw several games lost due to rain. The outdoor rink was unplayable on February 6 and the Crystals and Wanderers did not show at the rink for their games. Both teams lost by default although the games could not have been played.
The tournament was the first appearance of the Ottawa Hockey Club in competitive play. The club made it to the final game before losing to the Victorias 1–0.
