Puckdoku Game 608 - 7/9:

201 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Mouillerat of unusual size

Ugh. Penalty minutes.

(My misses were Bryan Muir, who didn't get enough games with EDM to hit that number, and Marc Bergevin, who had 26, 27 and 36 with PIT )

 

[kvladimir]

Hmmm... gotta wait a bit on the main game

In the meantime:

Puckdoku Doku Jr - 4/4:

6 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Be Goring

 

[DitchMarner]

Disco Stu Likes Disco Music!

0 career playoff GP? Seriously? Missed with

Spoiler

Aulie

for TB. It turns out he played 1 game in the 2014 playoffs.

Puckdoku Game 609 - 9/9:

0 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Ready to Kudroc

There we go...

 

[DitchMarner]

Hey, look... it's Greg McKegg! With a leg for an arm and an arm for a leg!

 

[kvladimir]

Puckdoku Game 610 - 9/9:

3 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Eye of the Tiger

Why does TOR/OTT have to be so dang hard!

(Edit: ok, so it's less that it's hard, and more that people are insane and will pick Colin freakin' Greening over Noah Gregor, Michel Amadio, NICK FREAKIN FOLIGNO, and JASON FREAKIN SMITH!!! )

Puckdoku Pyramid - 6/6:

0 Uniqueness
No Lifelines Used

Spoiler: Mr. Jones and me

Ok, credit where credit is due, I did not realize the top square answer in the first 10 seconds

Also, any excuse to whip out Reto von Arx is a great one!

 

[DitchMarner]

Patience Pushor...

lmao... I thought NJ/CLB was bad. What even is CLB/MIN? I literally couldn't think of any other answer (knowing full well the percentage on Gaborik would be disgustingly high) and eventually gave up because I have to go to work.

My go-tos are always Brendan Gaunce (Canucks legend), Justin Falk (Ketchup......... Catsup), and Zac Dalpe (Canucks Legend)

Puckdoku Game 611 - 9/9:

2 Uniqueness

Spoiler: How much wood can a Babchuk Chuck?

And yeah, I merked this one on purpose for the pun (wanted Babchuk + Chuck Kobasew, knew he'd be high, even for MIN/BOS). Worth it!

If only you had been able to get Randy or Miles Wood or Kyle Wellwood in there.

Puckdoku Game 612 - 9/9:

6 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Fast Carr

"Say the line, Vlad!"

"...ugh, goalies"

"YAAAAAAAAY!!!!"

At least NSH was one the left this time, huh?

 

[DitchMarner]

Robert Yawn...

Rather mid outing here...

 

[kvladimir]

Puckdoku Game 613 - 9/9:

1 Uniqueness

Spoiler: I am The Anton's broken heart!

Meh, disappointing that I forgot all about Sulzer, Klemm and Yanic Perreault, but oh well, at least I got it down 1%

 

[kvladimir]

Puckdoku Game 614 - 4/9:

501 Uniqueness

Spoiler: No Wreggets

What a terrible, evil game!

Definitely confused on McAmmond - was thinking of the Comrie trade, but that was to NYI, not NJD

Craig Billington was mhy NJD/1+ PO W pick, but he only ever got into 2 games with them and didn't win either

And then, whiffed on all 3 5+ PO goals picks - Fedotenko for PHI (he went to TB before his big PO scoring years), Mike Rupp for NJD (thought he scored 2 goals in '03 SCF game 7, so I was banking that he got 3 more that year - turns out he scored 1 total goal ) and Scott Young for COL (who got 4 goals twice, and 3 goals twice....... )

 

[DitchMarner]

Stars Causing Scars...

Ugh. Went with

Spoiler

Fabian Brunnstrom,

who last played for DAL in '09-'10 and totally had the timeline wrong for

Spoiler

John Erskine.

That's some spicy Kurri...

Puckdoku Pyramid - 6/6:

20 Uniqueness
No Lifelines Used

Spoiler: Young Man

They really need to stop doing this whole "you have 3 players to choose from on the second-last square, including the one you need for the top one" thing with the Pyramids, so annoying...

Also, slightly off-topic, but I heard multiple quotes after Rantanen got traded yesterday that "Puckdoku players 10 years from now will thank the Hurricanes" .................... dude, you really think we're all just going to forget about possibly the biggest and most surprising trade of the last decade in another decade, just because he only played 10 games before being traded again? No one is going to forget he played for CAR, come on!

Puckdoku Game 615 - 9/9:

2 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Meyer hee, Meyer ho, Meyer ha ha...

Shouldn't have bothered waiting, just annoyed me how close to <1% Diduck was...

 

[kvladimir]

Puckdoku Game 616 - 9/9:

4 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Young Man 2: Alexei Gusaroo

Wait... a player exists that kvladimir doesn't know of?! This is madness.

I remember the name, but I don't really know anything about him, either (other than that he played for NSH and scored 20 goals apparently).

I do, however, remember the Vowel Line: Arkhipov,

Spoiler

Erat

and

Spoiler
