71 Losses, San Jose Sharks, 1992-1993

[tchaos713 5]

Edited for double post - sorry

[MiniMark 7]

Good work tchaos713. The Sharks finished with 71 losses in the 92-93 season while the Ottawa Senators finished with 70. Still they split last place honours (Canadian Way of spelling) of least points with 24.

Question 108: Which team has the longest drought since winning the Cup and how long has it been since this team tasted victory.

edited for spelling.

[beebs 129]

Chicago Blackhawks. I believe it is 45 years(1961-2006), if you include this season. Because they sure ain't gonna make the playoffs.

[MiniMark 7]

beebs your correct. good job. Yes you managed to realize that they have been offically eliminated from the playoffs. The closest time the Hwaks came to the cup was in 1992 when my team the Penguins...i thank you swept them 4-0 in the final. Also sensman and ryanb_sc4 looks like Ottawa and Buffalo went at it again tonight. It was a good game.

Question 109: Name the only rookie to win an "Adams"? Bonus what team did he play for

[tchaos713 5]

Ummm... I'm going to guess Marc Crawford. He coached the Colorado Avalanche in the 1994-1995 season and won the Adams Trophy that year. As a player, he played for the Vancouver Canucks.

[MiniMark 7]

Now tcahos713 and sensman both answered this question correctly (sensman answered it in the chat) and both are correct. But i have to award this to tcahos713 as he answered directly in the fourm. Good job. Sensman you will recieve 5 points but for the next time please (and this is to everyone as well) answer in the fourms. Thanks.

Question 110: Which current NHL Player has probably given himself the very worst reputation with the league. Hint: His team is currently fighting for a playoff spot in the Western Conference.

[tchaos713 5]

#44 Todd Bertuzzi - Vancouver Canucks

In my personal opinion he should never be allowed to play hockey again...but what do I know?

[Ryan B 35]

I'm going to go with uber-pest Sean Avery. He loves to run his mouth.

Even though you said Western Conference, my second choice would be Darcy Tucker.

[canuck3360 14]

Oh come on lay off Tucker(ok here I go as a Leafs Fan) didn't Hecht Jump right back up and take a swing at Tuckers head with a stick? and didn't he skate off seems like he wasn't hurt as bad as you think. OK sorry Ryan but I have 3 sabre Fans that are in my rink all the time and that's all they could do was whine about Hecht being hurt.SO I had to vent If I vent on People renting the Ice it isn't good for Buisness.

[Ryan B 35]

Yup, he's a Leafs fan, all right . . . . . 

I was livid when I saw the hit, but I ( unlike other Sabres fans ) am over it.  I would have loved to see Tucker get suspended, but it didn't happen, and I questioned " why " on my radio show, couldn't find an answer, and moved on with my life.

In all reality, most Leafs fans are pretty cool.  The only ones I can't stand are the ones who start tippin' on the Labatt Blue before they come to the Arena.  I *almost* got in a fight with one of them.

[beebs 129]

The only thing I hate are the refs/video guys that suck oh-so-bad.

[Ryan B 35]

beebs - You're not joking. You're talking to a fan of the team that's been shortchanged by those vido goal judge idiots. I hear the guy in Calgary got fired for messing up the call where Regehr kicked it in with his skate.

But I digress.

[beebs 129]

The reffing Oilers get is just terrible. You have no idea.

[canuck3360 14]

Last Weeks Ref Crew in Edmonton=The Worst Referee's in the Entire NHL(how you can mess up a delayed penalty and then call off a goal is beyond me).

I just hope we get fair reffing in St. Louis and in the playoffs. It's just ridiculous now.

[MiniMark 7]

Oh man I forgot there was Bertuzzi...hits head. lol. Likewise tchaos713 and ryanb_sc4 will split the 10 points a peice. Yes Sean Avery is who i was thinking of as he does like to open his mouth. At least he wasnt on the olympic team unlike Bertuzzi who in my mind was one reason why we lost the Olympics(Team Canada).

[IronDogg 0]

Stay Tuned for Question 112 everyone as it will be posted later on.

[MiniMark 7]

Question 112: Who is the nickanmed keeper of the cup and provide a picture of him. An extra 5 points will be awarded if you can provide a picture of him with the cup.

[tchaos713 5]

Mike Bolt is the keeper of the cup.  Here's a picture of him:

[Ryan B 35]

This will be the new Stanley Cup handler in a few years:

At least, I hope so!

[tchaos713 5]

Good luck to you, Ryan! Maybe you'll get to give it to Sidney Crosby and my Pens at some point!

[canuck3360 14]

Nah by then they'll be the Winnepeg Jets

[tchaos713 5]

Please don't say that... I don't know what I would do if the Pens left Pittsburgh...

[canuck3360 14]

I'm very sorry to say it is reality the Govener of Pennsylvania refuses to alllow the Slots for Mario or to fund a new Arena and without an Arena the Pens aren't profitable. Therfore they more than likely will annouce the sale of the Penguins to a new Ownership group. and that group will move the Pens after the 06-07 season so I'd say 2007 will see two francises in new Cities(Florida Panthers are in the same boat kinda) so one will likely move to the Peg which has a beatiful new Arena and the Other likely bound for Quebec City,Portland,Seattle,Las Vegas(after Operation Slap Shot I doubt it),Hamilton,Toronto(there is an ownership group trying to buy the Pens and move them to Northern Toronto)

Bealive me I love the City of Pittsburgh and the Penguins are a great proud organization.so to see them move will hurt me as well as for Florida I say bout time(next up to move after them------Carolina(not doing so good attendance wise)

[Ryan B 35]

I don't mean to stir the pot here, but there's no hope for a team in Hamilton, based on the reaction the Maple Leafs owners had when the Knoxes were campaigning for a NHL expansion franchise for Buffalo in the late 1960s.

[MiniMark 7]

Good job tchaos713. I'm sure the Govenor of Pennsylvania will approve of keeping the Penguins in Pittsburgh. Likewise Toronto does NOT need another team and Hamilton does not NEED a team. I personally would like to see a team back in Winnipeg but not the Penguins. If anything keep every team in the league add another 4 teams (Houston, Las Vegas, Winnipeg and somewhere else possibly Indianapolis). Likewise Save the Penguins.

Question 113: Name a song commonly played after the home team scores a goal?

[beebs 129]

Don't the Canadiens use Vertigo by U2?

[Ryan B 35]

Here's the big two:

Gary Glitter - Rock & Roll, Part 2

Zombie Nation - Kernkraft 400
