It was said that he also demonstrated advanced hockey skills at a young age. Although Morenz signed a contract with the Montreal Canadiens, in a letter, he said he was sorry and could not play for the Canadiens. When asked why, Morenz felt that he wasn't good enough for the Habs. Through Leo Dandurand's convincing, Morenz reported to Montreal's training camp, making his his rookie debut in the 1923-24 season and embarked on a fourteen year career in the National Hockey League. While with the Canadiens, Morenz was paired with Auel Joliat, in what is considered as one of the most popular lines ever known. Later known as "The Stratford Streak" once again for his blinding speed. One goaltender described Morenz not as number 7, but 777 because he was nothing more than a blur.
