Remembering some guys through Puckdoku

Five percent for Aki? That's wacky.

Long after retirement, Berg pisses me off again. Lovely.

0 Uniqueness

Spoiler: A boy can't spend all day Joakim

Good thing I didn't have to wait all day on this one (was at 2% for a while)

Puckdoku Game 641 - 7/9:

200 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Noonan nonsense

Damn you Nick Palmieri for not going to college like your brother!

Ditto Mathieu Schneider, who I thought was a shoo in just because I knew he is American, despite the French name and having played for the Habs

No Walk(er) in the park...

Puckdoku Game 642 - 8/9:

100 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Pyatt! Shazayam!

Ack, messed up a great game with Casey Fitzgerald, who I remembered screwing up another game for me because I thought he had only played for BUF, and I remembered him signing with NYR, but he played those games with FLA, never with NYR so far!

Still, points for getting all those undrafted players by remembering old players from before the draft started!

Puckdoku Game 643 - 7/9:

201 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Blandisi as a Sunday morning

Puke. DET/ANA always messes me up for some reason... Huskins/Sandstrom/Mironov/Rowney would all have worked, but I always blank on these guys!

Also: could have sworn Arcobello and Condon were waiver claims, but I guess not? (Edit: ah, I see, TOR is the one team Arcobello didn't get claimed off waivers by... and same for Condon!)

 

[GlitchMarner]

Call Jenny Craig - well, that score can stand to drop some percentage points

Puckdoku Doku Jr - 4/4:

0 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Flawless Vincoury!

Hahaha, I can't believe this actually worked! Loooove when I can use Reto von Arx, Swiss NHL legend!

Puckdoku Game 644 - 9/9:

2 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Now you're dealing with a... Drayson of a b****

Didn't have time to post this yesterday... lol. Had a 1 at first but it was close to a 0, so I waited... it turned into a 2, then a 3 late last night, then back to a 2 now

Having CBJ/CAR, CBJ/NSH and CGY/NSH is sicko mode

Puckdoku Game 645 - 5/9:

402 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Dvorak's Unfinished Symphony

Truly horrific, man!

[WSH/750+P] Tikkanen - only got 630
[WSH/1000 games+] Brendan Morrison - 934
[WSH/100g+] Radek Dvorak, who I keep thinking played for WSH but he did not!
[KHL/750P+] Oleg Tverdovsky - 317, man I forgot how much his career went off the rails!

Puckdoku Pyramid - 6/6:

I'll allow it

Hnat's not bad...

Puckdoku Game 646 - 8/9:

103 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Malone Wolf

Lots of players I was expecting to be lower, and ones I thought would be high were not... Denis Savard being 0.4% is a great example!

Missed on Sergei Krivokrasov for MIN, he only got to 22 points, thought he was better than that at least once...

 

[GlitchMarner]

Picked Lupul but couldn't find a Loophole...

 

[kvladimir]

Puckdoku Game 647 - 8/9:

101 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Up the Rivers

Made one of the dumbest mistakes ever... confused Tommy Soderstrom with Tommy Salo (both Swedish goalies, both played for NYI at the same time, but only Salo went on to EDM, not the other... )

 

[GlitchMarner]

He who chooseth Mark shall not Parrish...

Puckdoku Game 648 - 8/9:

100 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Dykhuis of the rising sun

EYAAAAAAAAAARGH!!! This should have been SOOOO easy!!!

But no, Shane Churla, you had to go and only play *checks notes* 488 GAMES!!!!

 

[Brodeur]

Today I learned Shane Churla only played 488 games.

Puckdoku Game 649 - 8/9:

101 Uniqueness

Spoiler: Salo, farewell, avitazen goodbye...

Four straight games with 1 wrong in the exact same place!

Curtis Sanford only having 47 wins is a surprise... thought he played longer. He was a quasi-starter (at least temporarily) in at least 3 or 4 different seasons, but all the teams he played for were awful (at least while he was playing for them... *staaares at 2009 Canucks*)

Also, would the Canucks fans please stop obsessing over this game (besides me )?Noronen at 1%, come on!

 

[GlitchMarner]

The Bert and Erne Show (aka Austin Mowers and the Fall of Rome)...

After 6% on Erne, I gave up and chose Bertuzzi just so I could make the reference.

 

[Brodeur]

Bah, I had forgotten this series of Matt Carle transactions:

July 2008: San Jose trades him to Tampa
November 2008: Tampa trades him to Philly
July 2012: signs back with Tampa
