Eleven

That second one is very, very tempting...

That stuff was always a virtue-signaling gimmick anyway. I don't think the NHL's contributions to cancer research, or veterans' orgs, or to pride groups, or whatever really moved the needle.

Nah. Rte 50 maybe. But I don't think that many fans would attend both. Maybe a few thousand.

I'll clarify--Conroy or *Huska* (had to look him up) or both?

I've got a fun question for when this hard one is completed.

Is it GM or coach or both?

It just seems sometimes--like here and in the OEL thread--that you ask these questions and then jump at people who disagree with your preconceived answer. Maybe I'm just reading you wrong. And I agreed with you in part in that other thread, too. Anyway, I'm w/ @Weave, I really don't think you can judge the off-season until about 20-30 games in, unless he does absolutely NOTHING, in which case I think he's open to criticism and possibly summary execution.

Yes it is.

Exactly. We didn't know whether Comrie was the right decision when he signed, and some people say we still don't b/c of injuries and sample size.

Why do you keep asking open-ended questions when you clearly have one answer in mind? Your question *really* is, "If KA just gets a top 4 D and a G, isn't the offseason a success? Fite me if no."

Added.

Great call

This is going to last a week...which is fine...a good puzzle is a fun puzzle.

Exactly.

Oh boy. This is going to be tough. Can you at least tell us how many? And what defines "a cup of coffee"?

I was shocked when I saw his name on TBN's list. I had to double check, even.

Housley doesn't baffle me. Turgeon, as well as Vernon, do. In 1992-93, maybe it should have been obvious to us: The NHL refused to recognize Mogilny's 50-in-50 as legit because it was 50 games that HE played, not 50 team games (he had been injured for a few). That distinction never had been drawn before, because it never had been necessary, but it seemed totally arbitrary and a snub at the time. Maybe the league always had it in for the pioneer defector that BROUGHT NEW TALENT TO THE LEAGUE in droves. I restarted it, thank you very much. And Dick Duff is the missing one. Until today, I didn't know that he even played AGAINST the Sabres (I thought he had retired before 1970) much less FOR. Good job, boys. One of you come up with another question, please.

You can always look it up and not participate further. It's not like you're getting a D- for getting 12/13. I do have clues but there's no way I'm giving one until at least tomorrow.

Indeed there is only one more left.

OK folks, as of today, 13 players who wore the Blue and Gold have been elected to the HHoF. Not builders, broadcasters, coaches, etc.--just players. Some of these are tough, some are easy, but let's have your best efforts without resort to the outside world.

Even its creator hates it.

I always love watching that until I remember their ages at the time.

I don't hate this idea. Not at all.

Dammit I mixed you and Frenchy up...hang on...editing.
