Christopher Redvers Green (December 12, 1899 in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada – July 25, 1966) was a Canadian professional ice hockey left winger who played 6 seasons in the National Hockey League for the Hamilton Tigers, New York Americans and Boston Bruins. He won the Stanley Cup in 1929 with the Boston Bruins.
He played junior hockey for De La Salle Academy, Parkdale Canoe Club, and his hometown Sudbury Wolves. Green then played senior hockey for Port Colborne and Sudbury.
Green then turned pro with the Hamilton Tigers of the NHL in 1923-24. In 1924-25 he scored 19 goals including 5 in one game. After the labour dispute closed the Tigers down, Green joined many of his old teamates on the New York Americans in 1925-26.
His play dropped with the Americans and he only managed 6 goals in 1927-28. The next year he was traded to the Boston Bruins where he failed to register a point in 22 games. The Detroit Cougars picked him up on waivers but he also went scoreless with them in 2 games.
Green played three seasons in the American Hockey Association from 1929-32 and retired in 1932.
