Ugh, this one fell to pieces after a great start...

For some reason, I thought Maxim Balmochnykh would work for ANA/STL, no idea what went on there... Then, I took swings on Alyn McCauley (maxed at 24 pts for TOR, then got 47 as a Shark), and Langenbrunner (24 again! :help:)

Adams Family... Creighton was a great answer, but I put Craig Adams for the last square remembering he had a ten goal season; he had that season with CAR and never came close to ten goals in a season with PIT.

So this is what it's like when you're the first person to play a game. Daigle missed Mess by one year in New York.

Uh, no actually, I suck at these...

[PIT/10G] Koltsov (9 - :eek2:) immediately got 1 wrong and mostly took swings from here on...

[PIT/20g] Tanti (14)

[CHI/10G] Pisani (7)

[MTL/20G] Sundstrom (8 - lol :laugh:)

[MTL/30G] Ryan Walter (29, and 38 the previous year with WSH :pullhair:)

Take away my license! :silly:

Aaagghhh, messed this one up with a mis-click! Was going to go Patrick Flatley for Gretzky/NYR teammate, but I put him in the EDM/Messier square by mistake :facepalm:

Also, I confused Kovalenko with Kamensky again, neither of which would have been correct for Gretzky/EDM because Kovalenko wasn't a Ranger and Kamensky wasn't an Oiler (and got to NYR the season after Gretzky retired)

I did enjoy realizing that I could have used Shields+McGillis for the Sharks row too. Under 500 GP with some Devils connections in Loktionov/Fahey. David Tanabe also was a random Devil killer back in the day, unfortunately his career was cut short due to injury.

Didn't realize Skrudland was so injury prone (881 games over 17 seasons) :amazed:

Also, Igor Larionov? 14 season Hall of Famer? Only 169 goals!!! :pullhair:

I like how someone put all-Sabres grid in my community one.

Leopold, Vanek, Bogosian, Errey, Turgeon, Ledyard, McLlwain, Gratton, Shannon.

Ugh... one good answer away from a perfect game. I tried Brylin for the NJ/1000 GP square. Turns out he didn't come close to 1000 games (under 800 in his career).

Point me to it, I want to see if I can do all ex-Canucks (other than Ledyard) :thumbu:

Hahaha, I agonized over this one for so long, trying to come up with one guy who played for DET, NYI and PHI, besides Mike Sillinger, who I knew was going to be the top square. Then I discovered these "life lines" and thought, ok, sure, if I can figure it out by using something provided to me like this, it's not cheating...

Turns out, I could have figured it out a long time ago, it's just I didn't realize that Valtteri Filppula played for NYI, which I didn't know because I was confusing him with Franz Nielsen, who played for DET and NYI, but not PHI, so I thought it was a one guy was DET/PHI and the other was DET/NYI type of situation! :laugh:

So Saad. I thought of Nikitin and Upshall for STL/CLB but wasn't sure either was an answer (both were correct). I didn't want to choose Sillinger because I thought he would be a super high percentage answer. The best alternative I could think of was Saad (35%). :(

You somehow overthought yourself into picking the highest % player by a fair margin! :laugh:

Seriously... team Captains for franchises that debuted in the last ~25 years?

Swing and a miss on Ottawa, just didn't want to pick Alfredsson, Spezza, Karlsson or Brady, which only leaves the captain(s)? from their formative years. I tried Kevin Dineen, but no dice. (Edit: I GOT THE WRONG DINEEN!!! :biglaugh:)

Also, I thought Kovacevic went OTT-->WPG-->MTL? Bah.

Haha, well well, guess which 3 squares were the last ones I did? :banghead:

Maaaan, Jamie McGinn was my other guess for SJS/ANA, and he was 0.2%!! :pullhair:

I whiffed on SJS/medal with Harri Sateri, which was right for the medal, but he was only drafted by SJS, never played for them :eyeroll: Other miss was Grigorenko... (Edit: WAIT, WTF?? Grigorenko was correct with 0.2%, why did it give me a wrong answer??? Is there another Grigorenko? :eek2:)

Gee, I wonder what the theme was today? 🇫🇮 📸

Did you put Grigorenko as an answer in the right slot? If so, it sounds like you got screwed over.
