He also spent two-thirds of the coming season with the Providence Reds and was slowly introduced to the NHL. Completely arrived in the NHL, he played in the 1936/37 season at the side of Dit Clapper and his childhood friend Milt Schmidt and took on the physical part in the series. From the next season he formed the Kraut Line together with Schmidt and Bobby Bauer , which had a significant share in the Bruins' second Stanley Cup win in 1939 .
