Salming didnt play in 94.. Iirc it was one of the Islanders defencemen.. Tomas Jonsson maybe?
 
Atlanta Flames - MacMillan for both

Anaheim (Mighty) Ducks - Selanne goals, Kariya points

Buffalo Sabres - Martin goals, Perreault points

Boston Bruins - Esposito for both

You're right with Boston, half right with both Atlanta and Buffalo, and wrong with Anaheim, in terms of who was first in scoring 50 goals and in reaching the 100-point mark in a single season with Anaheim.

2a. Which player was the best socring defenceman in the 1980 AND 1984 (by huge margin) and 1988 (by fairly large margin).

Along with Fetisov, Vasili Pervukhin also had 9 points (all assists) in 1980. But yep, since Fetisov also scored some goals (5 g., 4 a.), he was the best scoring defenceman.

Anyway, who was the 3rd best scorer among defencemen in the 1980 Winter Olympics? (there's a little catch *hint hint*)
 
- Which two HHOFers were born on the exact same day in the exact same year?

- Which two players who played in the 1990s and 2000s each played for the exact same four teams and only those four teams? (they were never traded for eachother)

- Name all 7 of the active NHLers who have won the cup with multiple teams.

Correct. In 1981-82, Dino Ciccarelli scored 50 goals for the first time - the first time by a North Star - and also hit the 100-point mark, but Bobby Smith beat him to it that same season. Similarly - in 1971-72 - Vic Hadfield was the first Ranger to score 50 goals, and the second - behind Jean Ratelle - to have 100 points. In Philadelphia, there was something of a photo finish. Rick MacLeish scored 50 goals in 1972-73, and that same season hit the 100-point mark - two days after Bobby Clarke.

1) Fastest goal by a player in his first NHL game ?

2) Name the only (4) players who scored a hat-trick in their first NHL game?

3) Name the only (3) Winnipeg Jets to accumulate 500 or more points while playing for the Jets?
(WHA stats do not count)


easy questions if you look them up...... tricky if you don't :naughty:
 
2) Name the only (4) players who scored a hat-trick in their first NHL game?

I know Real Cloutier and Fabian Brunnstrom are two of these.

3) Name the only (3) Winnipeg Jets to accumulate 500 or more points while playing for the Jets?

Dale Hawerchuk, Thomas Steen, and... Morris Lukowich?

You're right vis-a-vis Vancouver, half right with Hartford, Quebec and Toronto, and wrong with both guesses with Pittsburgh.
 
Nordiques : J. Richard (Goals), P. Stastny points

I would have given you full marks even if you had said Jacques Richard for scoring 50 goals first and for picking up 100 points first. Both he and Peter Stastny hit the 100-point mark on the same day: March 29, 1981. If anyone recalls the Nordiques' game played that day, perhaps he or she could indicate which player was first to pick up his 100th point that game.

Richard - the second player chosen in the 1972 Amateur Draft (by the Atlanta Flames) - finished the 1980-81 season with 52 goals and 51 assists, for 103 points in 78 games. He was never close to those numbers before or since that season.

1st question is Gus Bodnar. I ran into him back when I was randomly looking at random Calder Trophy winners.

Haha on my mistake on Redmond. I knew his last name was Redmond and then the name Todd made sense to me as I've heard it before so I put two and two together. :laugh:

First 100-point Leaf would be Sittler, 50-goal scorer Vaive.

First 100-point scorer for Hartford would be Mike Rogers, 50 goals Stoughton as already mentioned.

For Pittsburgh it would be some combination of Jean Pronovost/Pierre Larouche/Syl Apps, all in the same season.
