Question 99: What was the year of a certain NHL franchise that appeared in a Treehouse of Horror episode from the Simpson’s?

[tchaos713 5]

I believe that to be the 1976 Philadelphia Flyers...(and my inner Penguin shudders)

[Ryan B 35]

October 28, 1993:  The Simpsons' 5th episode, " Treehouse of Horror IV ".  

The 1976 Philadelphia Flyers were part of Homer's trial before the Devil.

[MiniMark 7]

Hello hockey fans in Canada,the United State s and our Armed Forces in Newfouland 

that would be the Legendary "He Shoots,HE Scores" Foster Hewitt

the Best Hockey Annoucer I've ever Heard

[MiniMark 7]

Good job canuck3360. That was one of 2 nicknames i was looking for. The other being the "Voice of Hockey". And yes he was probably the best ever.

Question 101: Of all the Cinderella Teams from 1990's to present day only one team managed to win the Stanley Cup. The New Jersey Devils in 1995 by defeating the Detroit Red Wings. The question is how many combined games total were won in the Stanley Cup Finals starting from 1990 to 2004 by a "Cinderella Team".

[beebs 129]

This question is awkward... it's somewhat open to interpretation over what is a cinderella team in any given year. Here are the teams I thought were cinderella's though.

Minnesota North Stars- 6 games

Vancouver Cancuks- 7 games

Florida Panthers- 4 games

Washington Capitals- 4 games

Buffalo Sabres- 6 games

Carolina Hurricanes- 5 games

Mighty Ducks of Anaheim- 7 games

Calgary Flames- 7 games

For a total of 46 games.

[MiniMark 7]

beebs your on the right track. However re-read the question as you missed one key word. I just said the word well spelt differently...hint one/won. But yes you did find all of the Cinderella teams except one team...

[beebs 129]

Egh...

Minnesota North Stars- 2 games

LA Kings(?)- 1

Vancouver Cancuks- 3 games

Florida Panthers- 0 games

Washington Capitals- 0 games

Buffalo Sabres- 2 games

Carolina Hurricanes- 1 games

Mighty Ducks of Anaheim- 3 games

Calgary Flames- 3 games

Total- 15 games

[MiniMark 7]

Good work beebs. You found the missing team. The LA Kings. Many people wanted the Leafs in the final that year to have an original classic final. Also Wayne Gretzky said that was probably the best game he has ever played in.

Well with that correct answer beebs you have know hit 300 congratulations!

Question 102: Name an NHL team that has a mascot that corresponds with there team team. Eg. SJ Sharkie=is a shark and thats San Jose's team name (don't use SJ Sharkie for this question) and find another one who matches this criteria. Also don't forget to name the mascots.

[beebs 129]

Atlanta Thrashers- Thrash.

[Ryan B 35]

I'm too late, but here's another one:

Sabretooth - arguably the most recognizable mascot in all of sports.

Oh sure bring that back up and rub some more SALT in my wounds. It hurts to watch game 7 of that series. But even more Game 6 when Gretzky got away with a high stick on Gilmour.

at least they are looking good at the moment.........................................................wait for it................. Hey ryanb_sc4

7-0 LEAFS!!!!! 

[Ryan B 35]

canuck3360 - Did you have to bring that up?  I feel horrible already as it is.  I stopped watching after the first period.

Hopefully things will change on Monday - - but I doubt it.  Sure, we're getting Briere, Hecht, and possibly Numminen back . . . . but what difference will that make if we don't take care of the puck in our own end first?

[canuck3360 14]

would it make you feel better if I pointed out that the Sabers will make the playoffs meanwhile the Leafs won't

or better yet how bout Capitals 1-Senators 0 LOL

[MiniMark 7]

beebs you are correct again.

I'm sorry to bring that up canuck3360, I remember that game like there was no tomorrow. Now 7-0 is a huge embarrassment to the Sabres but there is a rematch tomorrow, so we will see what happens. Likewise Aubin is 3-0 this season...only if the Penguins didn't get rid of him. Oh well they have Caron and Fleury which will be awesome in the future.

Question 103: Provide me a picture of 2 original six arenas.

[canuck3360 14]

well It's gonna be a good game tomorrow so I'm hoping for another Blue and White Victory!

as for aubin I always wondered why the Penguins let him go but then again he's struggled at times even in the AHL.

as to the question at hand

My Favorite one

MLG

and 

Olympia Arena

[Ryan B 35]

Just a message to all hockey fans - A HUGE pet peeve of mine is when people misspell " Sabres ".

It's ' S a b r e s. '    Thank you.  And now, back to our regularly scheduled trivia program.

[MiniMark 7]

Question 105: Name the referee from Parkhill Ontario, Canada? Provide a picture of him.

[canuck3360 14]

Don VanMassenhoven


It wouldn't let me Post pictures earlier so now it does
just for a test

[MiniMark 7]

Thats right canuck3360. Vanmassenhoven is from where i attended high school from Grade 9-11 in Parkhill. Although I never met him, and his nephews went to the school. Talk about a small world. For the record, in the arena in Parkhill there is a jersey of his signed and encased in glass inside the arena.

Question 107: What is the record for most losses in a season. Who accomplished this feat and what season did it happen? I do realize that some seasons have more games than others eg 70, 82, 84 etc but it doesn't matter for this question as long as you answer it.
