Indiana Sev takes it. If I'm not mistaken, Housley is the highest scoring American defenceman ever, though.

[Indiana Sev]

Correct. Your turn Ron.

[ToRontoRon]

Okay, I've got one. This one's going back a ways though, and you might have to reach for a hockey almanac or something, but here goes:

The NHL was formed in 1917, and since that time, two of those years an NHL team did not win the Stanley Cup. Name the two seasons this happened, and the reasons why.

[horrorfreak13]

hmm...... lets see 1919 between the Montreal Canadiens and the Seattle (can't remember what they were called back then) when the series was tied 2-2-1 most of the members od both teams were infected with a inflenza flu virus and cancelled the rest of the cup final.

the other one was 1925 between Victoria and Montreal and I think Victoria was part of that PCHL or something like that where the NHL winner would play the PCHL winner.

[ToRontoRon]

Well done horrorfreak13. You're up.

[horrorfreak13]

Name the top 5 penalty minutes leaders in NHL history? (and for a bonus how many penalty minutes by each player)

Ken Dorarty(not sure if the spelling is correct) and Vladimir Konstantinov.

As for Brodeur's goal I'm going on a limb saying Ottawa

[Haddonfield]

ah yes, Vladimir should have figured that one out.

and nope, it wasnt Ottawa...but close...

[horrorfreak13]

[Haddonfield]

Originally posted by horrorfreak13

Nope...I know he has scored more than one goal and im not sure who the other was against but his first goal was not with the Canes.

[horrorfreak13]

Ha I've found it he scored it against the Montreal Canadiens. His 2nd goal was against the Philadelphia Flyers almost 3 years later. I'll post a question shortly

[Haddonfield]

[horrorfreak13]

Who are the only 2 players(not active in the league) with more than 500 career NHL goals not in the Hockey Hall Of Fame?

[Haddonfield]

yikes....alright, 4 names spring into mind...ill try to figure this out...

I know Gartner is in, Im pretty sure Mullen is in...that leaves Verbeek and I want to say Dino Ciccarelli but Im not sure on the last one. Verbeek for sure...ah hell...

Patty and Dino?

[horrorfreak13]

that's right Verbeek doesn't become eligible for a few years while Cicarelli has had 2 chances and should have been in by now and will probably keep getting snubbed for another 2 years

[Haddonfield]

Who has the most career home runs without ever being in a World Series?

[PapaJupe2k]

EDIT:

I originally went with Sammy Sosa, but since you are a Boston fan I'll change to Jimmie Foxx, he played for the Sox, right?

[Haddonfield]

I can honestly say this is not a Boston question

:rolleyes: :) :D

Nope on Slammin Sammy and the Great Jimmy Foxx

[horrorfreak13]

Eddie Murray?

[Haddonfield]

nope, not Eddie

Here is a hint...PapaJupe2k mentioned the Red Sox...well its not a Sox player but maybe a guy from a different team that hasnt won in a long time...

[horrorfreak13]

[horrorfreak13]

[Grebdron]

Not much of a hockey fan, but I know Gretzky would be one.

Maybe Lemieux?

[horrorfreak13]

Both Lemieux and Gretzky have hit 70 but they weren't the last 2 players to do it.

[Haddonfield]

Teemu is one. and The Golden Brett did it two years in a row, with a remarkable 86 in, i want to say '91

[horrorfreak13]

Teemu Selanne is one while Bret Hull did hit 70 he wasn't the other one.

Hint: The other player is also active and has a stanley cup with the Devils in 2000.

[Haddonfield]

duh, Mogilny did it. Too bad he cant get in his wayback machine :)

Too easy of a hint Horrorfreak :)

[horrorfreak13]

I could have chosen a harder hint nut I was on a brain cramp at the time so I couldn't think of one.

I wiashed every player was back to their wayback machine even Selanne has fallen off since that rookie year

[Haddonfield]

alright, ive got one...who did buffalo give up in a trade for the Dominator?

[horrorfreak13]

Chicago in return got Stephane Beauregard and their 4th round pick in the 1993 entry draft which was used to pick Eric Daze

Name the player who finished runner-up in the rookie of the year to Peter Forsberg in 1994-95?

[TheAxeGrinder]

It was a tie, actually.

Washington's Jim "I'm not in the league anymore because Boston screwed me over" Carey, and Anaheim's Paul Kariya.

Name the team that has had the most 1st selections since 1971 in the NHL entry draft.

[horrorfreak13]

Quebec Nordiques?

[Haddonfield]

The Pens?

[TheAxeGrinder]

horrorfreak's close.

[horrorfreak13]

New York Islanders?

[TheAxeGrinder]

Originally posted by horrorfreak13
New York Islanders?

You were closer before, but I'll give it to you. It's in fact, Montreal, Ottawa and Quebec that have the most 1st selections, with 3 each:

Montreal in '69 (Rejean Houle), '71 (The Flower) and '80 (Doug Wickenheiser). Quebec had first pick from '89-'91 (Mats Sundin, Owen Nolan and Eric 'Punck-drunk' Lindros). Finally, Ottawa had dibs on first in '93 (Alexandre Daigle), '95 (Bryan Berard) and in '96 (Chris Phillips).

I was looking for the Habs, anyways, since they had the most success.

Intresting I know the Islanders had at least 2 #1 overrall picks in the 80s it was worth a shot.

Which 2 NHL players hold the record for the most points in 1 road game?

[TheAxeGrinder]

Brothers Peter and Anton Stastny of the Quebec Nordiques hold the record with 8 points each. Peter had 4 goals and 4 assists on Feb. 22, 1981 in a shootout with Washinginton. Anton had 3 goals and 5 assists in the same game. Final score: Quebec 11, Washington 7.

Which NHL team holds the record for the longest losing streak from the start of the season? Hint: it's not Ottawa.

The last answer BTW was Mike Johnson of the Phoenix Coyotes against Evgeni Nabokov in 2002

Alright new question then who are the only 2 players in NHL history to win the Norris Trophy, Calder Trophy, and Conn Smythe Trophy in their career?

Those things come in quite handy. :cool:

I don't have it it with me and it seems like it's hard to find but I'll take a stab at it and say Randy Holt

[TheAxeGrinder]

Nope, think a hall of famer.

[horrorfreak13]

Tiger Williams

[TheAxeGrinder]

Surprisingly, it's not the man who holds the record for most PIM ever.

It's a Bruin. That gives it away, really.

[horrorfreak13]

Terry O'Reilly

[TheAxeGrinder]

Nope, it's a Bruin Don Cherry talks about all the time (besides Bobby Orr).

[horrorfreak13]

Wayne Cashman

[TheAxeGrinder]

Nope, this guy was a real mean player and was known throughout the league as a real tough guy. Think 40's and 50's era NHL.

[horrorfreak13]

Alright after a weekend of research it leaves me with Fern Flaman his PIM is pretty high

[TheAxeGrinder]

Unfortunately, that was wrong as well. I give, it was Darth Vader himself, Eddie Shore. I'm passing it to you.

[horrorfreak13]

Dammit I was almost there too ah well you got me(not too many people get me with hockey trivia) next question.

Name the 2 players that share the record for the most Power Play goals in one playoff year?

[Haddonfield]

I know one was my boy Cam Neely back in 91. Ahhh great memories.

The other, Ill guess at either Lemieux or Bossy, tho I know Tim Kerr had a great run back in the early 80's.

[Peppy]

Originally posted by horrorfreak13

Mike Bossy and Cam Neely share the record.



Here is my NHL trivia question:

Who owns the record most power play goals in one playoff series?

[TheAxeGrinder]

Super Dave Andrychuk?

[Peppy]

Incorrect, It is not Dave A.

[Peppy]

Is there no one that can answer my trivia question?

[horrorfreak13]

Chris Kontos

[e_lateralus]

Ill ask the next (easy) question:

In twenty three games as a starter, how many interceptions did Joe Montana throw? (And for bonus) How many did he throw in his four Superbowl appearances?

[Moviefan1234]

I'll throw out a guess: 22?

And for the bonus: 3?

[e_lateralus]

Very close on the first one.
Not so close on the Bonus.

[Moviefan1234]

21 and 7?

[horrorfreak13]

23 and 9?

[e_lateralus]

Originally posted by Moviefan1234
21 and 7?

21 is CORRECT!!!

7 is wrong but heres a hintL its a VERY low number.

[horrorfreak13]

2?

[Moviefan1234]

It can't be one can it?

[e_lateralus]

FINAL HINT:

Its a number less than one :D !

[Moviefan1234]

The big ole' goose egg? It can't be.

[e_lateralus]

Yeah I thought that was a pretty amazing stat that, in all FOUR of his Super Bowl appearances (meaning the best or one of the best D's in the country) he NEVER threw an interception. Pretty ridiculous.

Now, who wants to ask the next question?

[Moviefan1234]

I wish I had seen Montana play more. He was at the end of his career when I seriously started watching football.

In college football, how many times have Yale and Harvard played? And who leads the series?

[e_lateralus]

(I dont know the answer yet, and will try to remember but...) I agree about not seeing him play more. I love underdogs and Montana, while certainly not neccesarily the most skilled QB, was a winner. Plain and simple. I am upset I was too yoing to really realize his ability to win :mad:.

[Moviefan1234]

Here's a hint: It's over 100.

[e_lateralus]

Alright, lemme think about this. Over 100 and who is winning. Lemme guess 128 games and Harvard is leading.

[Moviefan1234]

You're close with your guess of 128, and Harvard does lead the series.

[Peppy]

I think they have played 116 games against one another.

[Moviefan1234]

Originally posted by Peppy

Even closer.

[Moviefan1234]

Anyone else?

[horrorfreak13]

[horrorfreak13]

120??

[Moviefan1234]

Yes!

[horrorfreak13]

Alright baseball question when was the last year 3 players from 1 team finished 1,2,3 in batting average? Also name the 3 players and the team?
