Bag of Cole...

You knew about Ron Greschner, but didn't use him for Rangers' captain??

Also, @DitchMarner, you might want to try the Pyramid today, I have a feeling you will have a good time with it

Puckdoku Doku Jr - 3/4:

108 Uniqueness

Spoiler: No walk in the Park

Hard. Really hard. Not many players go through 3+ teams all in one season... And Richard Park was not one of them

Puckdoku Pyramid - 6/6:

10 Uniqueness
No Lifelines Used

Spoiler: Not quite Stumped

I like it when there is more than 1 answer for the final square, always makes things interesting...

 

[ViD]

Wow, I was 100% confident Ryan Smyth was a captain for the Oilers for some time

Thinking of the wrong Smy(i)th?

This was made for me.

I really wanted to use Thomas for the top square instead of JT but wasn't sure if he made it to 500 assists. Looks like he did.

Wow, I was 100% confident Ryan Smyth was a captain for the Oilers for some time

Yeah, for his last game. Sometimes their facts aren't together on Puckdoku.

 

[DitchMarner]

Contact Alanis Morissette because this is some irony!

I saw the NCAA column and freaked out... but ended up slaying it.

Then I choked on the regular part lol. I put Letowski for NYI/ARI (I guess I confused him with Isbister) and put Corkum for ARI/CHI (I think I thought of CHI because of Creighton - don't ask).

Puckdoku Game 480 - 9/9:

4 Uniqueness

Puckdoku

Guess NHL players based on team, season, and stats. Choose wisely, as you only get 9 shots to fill the board.

Hello, Mudah. Hello, Fadah. Here I am at Camp Granato!

 

[DitchMarner]

Columbus = bad Korolyck.

Big ol' whiff on clearly-born-in-Germany Herr. Nolan Schaefer!

Puckdoku Game 483 - 9/9:

0 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Dream Weaver

Ahhh, finally, feels like forever since I've seen that sweet, round shape...

Also, allow me to gloat for about 2 minutes...

 

[DitchMarner]

Move it up, down, left, right, oh
Switch it up like Nintendo
Say you can't sleep, baby, I know
That's that me Momesso!

 

[DitchMarner]

Sillinger Gocha!

I really need to stop putting Sillinger. This guy played for a dozen teams and you would think many people would forget that he played for certain teams. Like... how long or famous is his NSH stint? I don't recall ever having gotten a good percentage on him lol. Moore also played for a lot of teams but constantly gives me low percentage scores.

Yeah, everyone and their dog seems to have memorized every stop he made...

Puckdoku Game 484 - 8/9:

104 Uniqueness

Spoiler: What's Eaton you?

The 4 1%s were legitimately surprising to me... maybe they will go down?

Anyway, doesn't matter because I went with Matt Irwin for VAN/SJS... could have sworn he got into at least 1 game with VAN when they were heavily injured the last couple years... might be thinking of preseason games though

 

[Brodeur]

Darn, 7/9 for me today. I tried to go too obscure with Minnesota+100 goals. I thought Jim Dowd could have scored at a 10 goal clip x 10+seasons but he only had 71 career goals.

 

[DitchMarner]

Some Fall Yaking...

Look at those big stars Corkum and Bartecko.

You can blame me, and people like me, for Sillinger's consistent high percentage. It's not that I know what teams he played for, or that he ever comes to mind first for a square. It's that he's better than quitting a game when you're just totally stumped.

I've had games with 2 or 3 empty spaces, and I just have no ideas. So I type Sillinger (or Jagr) into the empty spots. About a quarter of the time I'll get a hit. Never quit a game with shots left. Just pick and pray Sillinger.

Puckdoku Game 485 - 9/9:

0 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Haller-y Quinn

I was going to say how "just ok" this game was, but you see...

... that happened.

I guess just chock this one up to "did really well on a really, randomly hard game?"

 

[DitchMarner]

Bottom left square was the Hardest Boynton to Button.

Dang, my memory sucks...

21 Uniqueness
No Lifelines Used

Spoiler: Forever Young

Aw, man... I thought Coffey for the 2nd last square would be SO good because LA/PHI are Coffey's least-known stops, and the counterintuitiveness of a Dman fitting in a 40+ goals square, but no, y'all are on top of this thing...

Also, ARRRRGGGHHHH, I forgot Dan Quinn fits that square too, and he would have been 0.3%!!!

Puckdoku Game 487 - 8/9:

101 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Scherbak in black

Booo, Ruslan Salei being wrong is such a technicality... played for Ak Bars Kazan, but juuust before the KHL was formed!
