an even tougher trivia question per sportsnet for all who dare: name the 4 players who have led their team in points for the team's first 4 seasons (post wha merger, aka after ~1980)
i'll let this go for a bit, then i'll give yall the teams as a hint, and then you'll still prob struggle mightily lol
Gretzky
Kariya
...
Big win for the Leafs, and we are going to the playoffs!
Can we have a playoff thread this year? Can we Can we Can we!?
yeah wayne was the easy one
kariya a good shout, but no. he was their first draft pick, but stayed the extra year in school so wasn't on the team in year 1. led them in scoring the next two seasons, they added selanne and he led year 3, kariya got injured year 4, after that they traded the lead back and forth for a while. pretty solid duo
in victoria?
****, if so i might have played against him in atom/peewee. raquet club is the big team there, yeah? think we beat them in a peewee tournament in a year when they were supposed to be one of the best teams in bc

Ya racquet club.
If you're his year we probably played against each other. I was Victoria city team atom/peewee, then racquet club bantam/midget.

the year above us was one of the best teams.
https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdis... and a bunch of other guys that ended up playing college/junior.

i think this was probably the year they beat them, but i don't remember pettinger. not to say he wasn't there though. or maybe i just it wrong. was there a guy named flynn or something? i do remember a different guy, big dman who moved well ... he seemed like a problem. but we had one of those too lol

lol
yeah our big claim to fame was winning a spring tournament in courtenay or something. or cowichan? somewhere on the island anyway, i forget. also did well in a tournament in the interior ... penticton maybe? think that's where we beat vrq and some other t10 teams. that season was the peak of my hockey career lol
These Habs are on fiiiiire
Habs are always on either a 5 game winning or losing streak seemingly. Let's hope they finish strong. The home atmosphere has been like that of a playoff game 7 these last few games.
It be great to see both Ottawa and Habs make it

ok, we are here
nashville, seattle and tbl are the other teams. have fun
1 away. He's gonna get an empty netter for the hat trick.
This is the first hockey game I've watched since G7 of last season's Cup. It's so impressive to me how anyone can even score in the first place, let alone 894 times.
I'm sure he will play next game, but he shouldn't. Break the record at home.
brian bradley is a nice pull. i remember him as a hockey player (or was there more than 1), but don't recall him being that prominent with tbl. wouldn't have guessed him in a million years

I looked at score app early in game and said eff Canucks suck.
Looked a few minutes and was confused. Thought app was glitching.
Lane Hutson, my god
Amazing shot.
Tyson Foerster lifted/launched a stick in that game yesterday. It reminded me of Desjardins, who used to do it often. Does anyone else do that?
Edit: it's a penalty, which is probably why I haven't seen it in a while.
Ovi!
Congrats to Ovi.
