dlbalr Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Since we've hit the dog days of summer, how about a trivia thread to pass the time? To avoid clogging the thread with too many questions, let's make it so that there are no more than five questions at any given time out there. Everyone is encouraged to guess or provide questions of their own (make sure you can provide a link/source for the answer). I'll get the ball rolling with some questions: - Which former Montreal prospect (he played in Hamilton but not Montreal) recently opened a vegan kitchen in Halifax? - Name the former Hab who led the EIHL in scoring this past season. (For those wondering, the EIHL is in Britain.) - Which former Hab prospect (drafted, never signed) once had a recurring role in a Swedish TV series as a 14/15 year old? All of these can easily be researched (that's how I came up with #3) but I encourage you to guess first. (Trivia about current Habs would be nice too, I just picked the ones I knew about.) Quote
nhfarber Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 answer to the first question (vegan kitchen) is Cory Urquhart I believe Quote
dlbalr Posted July 29, 2013 Author Posted July 29, 2013 answer to the first question (vegan kitchen) is Cory Urquhart I believe Correct - it was actually that article that gave me the idea to do this trivia thread.

dlbalr Posted July 29, 2013 Author Posted July 29, 2013 Lol, it's come to this eh boys. What's wrong with this? There's no news (the inevitable departure of Tokarski is about all there is left) so this is at least something to do. Quote
The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Lol, it's come to this eh boys. Lol, it's come to this eh boys. Here's my trivia question...how many regular posters on HW are female? Just curious really. Quote
HabsTrick450 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Who are the 3 players who made up the line known as the PhD line?

Only so many swedish prospects so... Nichlas Torp? Quote

JoeLassister Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Who are the 3 players who made up the line known as the PhD line?

Who scored a hat trick on December 4th 2009, during the Habs' Centennial Game against the Buins? Who scored a hat trick during the Stanley Cup Finals in 1993 against the LA Kings? The PhD line was Pouliot, Halpern and Darche. Aragorn aka Vigo Mortensen was wearing a habs t-shirt. He's been seen many times wearing Habs jersey for various photo shoots. Pretty sure the hat trick was Cammy's for the Centennial game. Quote
Dalhabs Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 You're right, there aren't that many but it's not him. Tried hard with google and still couldnt get this answered. How far back in time is this? The PhD line was Pouliot, Halpern and Darche. Aragorn aka Vigo Mortensen was wearing a habs t-shirt. He's been seen many times wearing Habs jersey for various photo shoots. Pretty sure the hat trick was Cammy's for the Centennial game. Have Viggo Mortensen been a habsfan for long or is it because Eller plays here? Quote
JoeLassister Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Have Viggo Mortensen been a habsfan for long or is it because Eller plays here? Way before Eller was traded here. Think LOTR part one. Quote
dlbalr Posted July 29, 2013 Author Posted July 29, 2013 Tried hard with google and still couldnt get this answered. How far back in time is this? I've stumped the Swedish guru, I'm very proud of myself... The pick is from the last 15 years. Quote
Machine of Loving Grace Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 I've stumped the Swedish guru, I'm very proud of myself... The pick is from the last 15 years. Answer: Christopher Heino-Lindberg Quote
Neech Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Can you name all the Habs player to score four goals in a game this millenium? Quote
Machine of Loving Grace Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Can you name all the Habs player to score four goals in a game this millenium? JAN THE MAN BULIS! Quote
The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 And nary a peep was heard. Apparently we are a lady-free zone. EDIT: Bulis!! I'm trying to forget. Quote
Neech Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Haha that question was specifically for Bulis, but we also have Lars in the club. Anyone else? Quote
dlbalr Posted July 29, 2013 Author Posted July 29, 2013 Answer: Christopher Heino-Lindberg Yep. I was looking up his career to do a question about his singing career when I stumbled upon the TV tidbit. From 1999 to 2000, Heino-Lindberg had a recurring part as Matti in the Swedish TV series, Eva & Adam.

If your question has been answered, feel free to edit your post to cross it out as well. Quote
Machine of Loving Grace Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 Friday, April 20, 1984 is known as the Good Friday Massacre between the Montreal Canadiens and Quebec Nordiques. The bench clearing brawl led to 252 penalty minutes assessed in the game (198 in the second period alone) and 11 players ejected. Name the 11 players. Added bonus: who were the four players given game misconducts in the second period yet started on the ice in the third period? Quote

Added bonus: who were the four players given game misconducts in the second period yet started on the ice in the third period? Ok. I will start it with the 4 I'm sure, since I watched this video on Youtube several times. Mario Tremblay Chris Nilan Peter Statsny Louis Sleigher (spelling) (the one who knocked Hamel) Then the obvious candidates : Richard Sévigny Mark Hunter Mike McPhee (the first fight of Round 2) Clint Malarchuk Dale Hunter Moller (don't know his first name) Tremblay, Sleigher, Nilan and Stastny came back after being ejected.

I was going to say Pierre Dagenais as a joke answer, and then I noticed he had a "Where Are They Now?" interview on the habs official site so I decided to check juuuust to make sure iot wasn't him. It wasn't But it's a good read. http://ourhistory.canadiens.com/article/Where-Are-They-Now-Pierre-Dagena Quote
