I was going to guess Hobey Baker, but I checked wikipedia, and he played for Princeton. Plus Hobey never played in the NHL; Baker died in December 1918 after a plane he was test-piloting crashed, hours before he was due to leave France and return to America.
Your thoughts???
With trivia, I often have a 'gut instinct' answer, but there is some uncertainty. Before posting, I'll check one or more sources to confirm my assumption. If I'm wrong, I might search further out of curiosity, but I won't post a correct answer from a secondary search. I think other players do this as well, and I don't consider this to be cheating, since I had decided on my potential answer before the search.
