Puckdoku Game 150 - 9/9:

6 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Billington of fun

Damn you Craig Billington, for randomly being 5% for NJD/OTT!

Puckdoku Game 151 - 8/9:

107 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Pedantrian

Awww, come on Andrey Pedan, thought for sure you got some games with PIT after the trade!

 

[TropicOfNoReturn]

I felt pretty good about this one. My best score yet.

Spoiler: 11/29/23

Puckdoku Game 152 - 7/9:

214 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Mildly annoying

Things were looking good until the MIN column!

Forgot that Pateryn never played for TOR before getting traded, and forgot that Daigle got traded from EDM the same day he was acquired!

6 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Ried it and weep

I think I deserve props for nailing a 0.0% player for the first time in forever...

Damn that's impressive. I thought I did well....

Spoiler

I thought that it had to be 100+ goals for that given team. I still managed well in that category though, despite that added hurdle!

It was others I gave in to temptation.

Puckdoku Game 154 - 7/9:

205 Uniqueness

Spoiler: JoJo's Bizarre Lack of Offence

200 assists is a lot more of a milestone than it seems at first...

When Zyuzin didn't work, I looked him up feeling like I must have hit a bug because he was definitely a top 10 pick, riiiiight??? Only to find that it was because he only scored 84 assists, despite all those years played...

Then, even bigger head scratcher: Eric Daze! 172 assists! WHAT. I almost picked Jere Lehtinen for that category, and he would have barely made the cut...

I took a chance on Jack and Erik Johnson for the 200+ assists categories, apparently both have 249 of them A safe pick with Hedgeduck on the "one team" square was a whopping 0.5%
Was torn between Juolevi and Virtanen for one of the Vancouver-squares, should have gone with Virtanen...

Puckdoku Game 155 - 9/9:

13 Uniqueness

Spoiler: The Unbearable Weight of Unexpected 4th Liner Popularity

That Scott Walker %...

Also, the Jr game, nice when that's an option:

Puckdoku Doku Jr - 4/4:

2 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Sad Stu Has Entered the Building

Wish I could have thought of a better option for TBL/Callahan teammate, but that's the one box that had limited options (either a Ranger from Lundqvist's time who went to TBL, or a TBL teammate when Callahan was there... I think I picked one who is both)

Did not get in before the lock:

Puckdoku Game 157 - 6/9:

304 Uniqueness

Spoiler: ...the heck was this???

Woooow, had my first total misclick in a looong time for this one... was going to plug Zack Stortini in for NSH/EDM, but clicked on NSH/PHI instead

Then, whiffed on Stu Bickel for CHI/10+ playoff games (I knew he isn't Bryan Bickell! I thought Stu played for CHI as well, and he got into 18 playoff games! )

And as for NSH/10+ playoff games, no excuse, picked Clune, and he did not play enough during the right era with NSH, so only got 4... sigh. On the plus side, Rissmiller continues to serve me well!

Puckdoku Game 158 - 6/9:

301 Uniqueness

Spoiler: There can be... only three hundred and ONE!

Well, this sucked!

[PIT/Dubas] Hallander, hadn't come over yet while Leafs property, played for the Pens the 2 seasons before Dubas took over

[CAR/40+ assists] Dvorak: missed his CAR totals and tenure by a bit... just a BIT
Couple of other squares he would have been great in!

[PIT/'91-'00] Garth Snow... missed it by one season!

Also - [CAR/"played in the 2010s"], apparently David Ayres counts, even though his one game was in 2020? Weirdness caused by inclusion of whole seasons...

Cool one today, went with Eric/Jordan/Jared down the middle

 

[kvladimir]

Puckdoku Game 159 - 9/9:

8 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Hnidy night

I'm actually very surprised I did this well, considering how few players I could think of that scored 1000 points and were undrafted! Ended up going for a player who I was reasonably confident started playing before drafting existed, but still got those totals, and ended up killing it with Mikita!

Very mad that I didn't think of Denis Savard in time for TBL/1000+ points

I don't look anything up anymore, haven't for months. I just think about it for a while, and am a nerd

Puckdoku Game 160 - 7/9:

204 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Clever name

I've got nothing this morning

Hallucinated Jan Hlavac playing for CBJ (was going to pick John Moore, that would have worked ), and I guess Mikael Renberg's 20 goal days were behind him by the time he got to TOR?

Also - looooooool, almost picked Nathan Gerbe for BUF/CBJ, who came up at 21%, how do so many people remember him for CBJ???

ALSO - How did JOE FREAKIN NIEUWENDYK get 0.1% for 20+ goals/TOR????

View attachment 779873

I was doing so well today, but then lost patience and ruined my good uniqueness score...

Spoiler

I, like you, thought that Gerbe would be a better answer, I was shocked to see 22%!
Then, with Clarkson, I just hit a mental block and then got lazy...
Otherwise quite happy with it.

 

[PizzaAndPucks]

Thought I had a pretty good game. Got stuck on the Leafs - Blue Jackets one. Didn't wanna do the obvious answer with Clarkson.

Puckdoku Game 161 - 9/9:

4 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Finding Goc throughout this entire experience

Best score in a while! Had to be careful of which of the *checks notes* 4 different squares Goc could have been used for...

Puckdoku OhtaniDoku - 6/9:

302 Uniqueness

Spoiler: ...and whenever Ohtani's not on screen, people should be asking, "Where's Ohtani?"

This one was fun. I had a score of 2 going into the last column, which I knew would kill any chance of a low score, so I decided to gamble, aaaaand...

Dionne - X
Pronger - X
Esposito - X

Oh well, funny bonus doku was funny

 

[Hockey Outsider]

I'm finding that

Spoiler: SPOILER

Mike Sillinger

has been a good player to guess when I can't think of a good answer.

 

[kvladimir]

Puckdoku Game 162 - 7/9:

206 Uniqueness

Spoiler: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

7 correct guesses and a score of 6, which felt high honestly, until the last 2 squares, after which:

CGY/20+ playoff goals: Michael Nylander (only 12, but in only 47 career games, when he almost played 1000 regular season, was thinking of going Drury, who was a 0.7%, how about that? )

MTL/20+ playoff goals: Robert Lang (18 )

Hate the 3% on Dean McAmmond, especially since I remembered that Patrick Sieloff exists, just not his name... , and the 2% on Mike Condon, especially since I remembered Matt Peca, just wasn't 100% certain he played for both teams...
