In the following game year Bell was part of the squad of league rivals Ottawa Senators , but he left the team again and returned to the Wanderers. With these he moved to the newly founded National Hockey League for the 1917/18 season . Shortly after the start of the season, however, the Wanderers ultimately had to stop playing because their venue had burned down on the foundation walls in a fire. Via a dispersal draft , the center came to city rivals Canadiens de Montréal in January 1918 , for whom he played sporadically until 1922 and completely suspended in the 1919/20 season.

Only with the renewed change in January 1922 to the Ottawa Senators, who received his services due to the previous move from Sprague Cleghorn to Montréal as compensation for the rest of the season, Bell ran more often in the NHL. As early as the 1922/23 season , the striker returned to the Habs , with whom he won the Stanley Cup in 1924 .
