George Alexander "Shorty" Horne (June 27, 1904 – July 31, 1929) was a Canadian ice hockey right winger who played three seasons in the National Hockey League from 1925 to 1929 for the Montreal Maroons and Toronto Maple Leafs.
In 54 career NHL games, he scored nine goals and assisted on three for twelve points. He won a Stanley Cup with the Maroons in 1926. George's name was left off the Stanley Cup because he did not play in the playoffs.[citation needed] Horne died in the off-season in 1929 when he drowned while on a canoe with some friends.[1]
