ehjay Posted August 4, 2013 Posted August 4, 2013 Given that response, Andre Racicot (who obviously was the backup in the 1993 finals). Keane and Schneider both retired in 2010. Schneider works for the NHLPA now. 1am stab in the dark Quote
dlbalr Posted August 4, 2013 Author Posted August 4, 2013 1am stab in the dark Neither were bad guesses, they were some of the latest ones from that team to retire. Quote
Trizzak Posted August 4, 2013 Posted August 4, 2013 Did he have to actually play in the Cup-clinching game? Or just be on the roster? Another question: Two Habs from the 1993 Cup-winning team were still playing pro hockey last season, name them. (Note that I don't classify the LNAH as a pro league, thus excluding Jesse Belanger who played there last year.) Paul Dipietro still playing in the swiss league? Quote
dlbalr Posted August 4, 2013 Author Posted August 4, 2013 Paul Dipietro still playing in the swiss league? He is, that's one of the two. Quote
dlbalr Posted August 5, 2013 Author Posted August 5, 2013 Oleg Petrov? Yep, the speedster (who may not be that speedy at the age of 42) played in he KHL last year. Quote
Dalhabs Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 Yep, the speedster (who may not be that speedy at the age of 42) played in he KHL last year. One of our top scorers in the dark ages of the early 2000s. Quote
dlbalr Posted August 5, 2013 Author Posted August 5, 2013 One of our top scorers in the dark ages of the early 2000s. He was one of my favourite players as a kid growing up. Looking at his stats, I can't quite figure out why (but I'm guessing it was his speed). Quote
dlbalr Posted August 5, 2013 Author Posted August 5, 2013 Another one (I'm determined to keep this going since there isn't much else going on right now...): Name the only three Hab players to average at least a point per game (minimum of 30 GP in that season) while serving as captain of the team. (Excluding repeat occurrences, three different names...) Quote
Trizzak Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 He was one of my favourite players as a kid growing up. Looking at his stats, I can't quite figure out why (but I'm guessing it was his speed). Same. Quote
Lovett's Magnatones Posted August 5, 2013 Posted August 5, 2013 One of our top scorers in the dark ages of the early 2000s. "All right! Joey Juneau/Donald Suzette are in the ice!" Given the relationship between Quebec separatism and the success of the Habs, I'm surprised no one ended up in jail for those teams. Quote
Seb Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 Count me in too. Him and Zednik for me. Did a few backflips when Zednik got clotheslined in the playoffs that year against Boston. Quote
JMMR Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 Him and Zednik for me. Did a few backflips when Zednik got clotheslined in the playoffs that year against Boston. Yep I was in high school and I remember wanting Mclarens head on a spike! Another one (I'm determined to keep this going since there isn't much else going on right now...): Name the only three Hab players to average at least a point per game (minimum of 30 GP in that season) while serving as captain of the team. (Excluding repeat occurrences, three different names...) Henri Richard Jean Beliveau Joe Malone Quote
dlbalr Posted August 6, 2013 Author Posted August 6, 2013 Henri Richard Jean Beliveau Joe Malone Beliveau yes (several times), Richard and Malone no. I don't think Malone was ever formally named a captain actually. Quote
bbp Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 Beliveau yes (several times), Richard and Malone no. I don't think Malone was ever formally named a captain actually. Beliveau... which you approved haha. Could it be Yvan Cournoyer and Toe Blake? Quote
dlbalr Posted August 6, 2013 Author Posted August 6, 2013 Beliveau... which you approved haha. Could it be Yvan Cournoyer and Toe Blake? Blake yes, Cournoyer no. 1 more to go. Quote
dlbalr Posted August 6, 2013 Author Posted August 6, 2013 @dlbalr: The 3rd was Pierre Turgeon Yep, obviously the most recent although Koivu came somewhat close in 06-07 as did Damphousse a year after Turgeon. Turgeon: 96 points in 80 games in 95-96 Beliveau: 78 points in 68 games in 63-64 (first of five times) Blake: 59 points in 48 games in 42-43 (first of three times) Other captains eclipsed the PPG mark but did so with less than 30 GP (Lalonde and M. Richard). http://www.hockey-reference.com/teams/MTL/captains.html Quote
bbp Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 Blake yes, Cournoyer no. 1 more to go. Awh close. edit: my next guess was damphousse which wasn't right either Quote
dlbalr Posted August 8, 2013 Author Posted August 8, 2013 New question: Name the three defencemen with the most games played for the Habs without playing for any other NHL or WHA team. (For example, Larry Robinson played the most games as a D with Montreal but played 3 years in LA so he's not eligible - name the top 3 that have never suited up elsewhere). Quote

Butch Bouchard, Jacques Lapperiere and Andrei Markov? Quote
dlbalr Posted August 8, 2013 Author Posted August 8, 2013 Butch Bouchard, Jacques Lapperiere and Andrei Markov? Yes, yes, and yes. I was hoping that question would have lasted a bit longer... If Markov plays even a reasonable number of games this year, he's going to take a nice jump in the all-time Habs GP list. Quote
dlbalr Posted August 13, 2013 Author Posted August 13, 2013 An easy one this time as I try to think of a better one: Name the last player that the Habs acquired off of waivers that did not actually play a single game for the team. Quote
