Charles Laurens Querrie (July 25, 1877 – April 5, 1950) was the first General Manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs, at the time called the Toronto Arenas (1917–20) and the Toronto St. Patricks (1920–27).
Querrie won two Stanley Cups with the team, in 1917–18 and again in 1921–22. Prior to his career in hockey coaching and management, Querrie was a prominent lacrosse player in amateur and professional leagues in his hometown of Markham (member of Lacrosse Hall of Fame) as well as in Toronto.[1]
In 1927 Querrie sold his majority stake of the St. Pat's to Conn Smythe, who had purchased the team along with several partners including St. Pat's minority owner Jack Bickell.
