Thomas J. Smith (September 27, 1885 in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada - August 1, 1966) was a Canadian professional ice hockey forward, who played from 1905 until 1920 for numerous teams. He was a member of two Stanley Cup-winning teams, the Ottawa Silver Seven of 1906 and the Quebec Bulldogs of 1913. His two brothers Alf Smith and Harry Smith also played ice hockey.

Playing career

Smith also played for the Montreal Canadiens, Quebec Bulldogs and Toronto Shamrocks in the National Hockey Association. Tommy Smith was a 5-foot 4-inches goal scorer who played for 16 teams in his career. While skating for the Ottawa Vics in 1906, Smith led the FAHL with 12 goals (including eight goals in a game against Brockville on February 23,1906). In future years, he would be the leading goal-scorer in the OPHL (1908–09) and the NHA (1910–11, 1913–14, 1914–15).

After the 1913–14 season in Quebec, he was traded (twice) to Toronto Shamrocks. This caused a dispute with the Pacific Coast Hockey Association. At that time, the NHA and PCHA had an agreement whereby the PCHA teams could draft one player from 3 of the 6 teams of the NHA. He was traded away from Quebec, which was eligible to lose a player. He started play for Shamrocks, though he had been drafted by Victoria of the PCHA. It was found that the initial trade was not allowed, and Quebec re-traded him to Toronto during the season, disregarding the PCHA efforts to get him. After the 1914–15 season, he was traded back to Quebec, avoiding the PCHA draft again.
