I. The Prize

This LetsGoWings.com Trivia Challenge prize is a pair of center ice tickets for this Monday's (March 26th) game at Joe Louis Arena against the high-powered Anaheim Ducks!

These tickets have been generously donated to the site by vladdy16!


II. Contest Details & Guidelines

- 23 Available Entry Spots / Number Assignment

The LGW.com Trivia Challenge uses the Mega Millions ( http://www.megamillions.com ) "Mega Ball" to determine our contest winner. The number (1-46) is randomly drawn as the 6th and final ball in bi-weekly drawings that take place on Tuesday and Friday nights at 11pm ET.

Correct Trivia Challenge entries will be granted two numbers that are determined by the order of the e-mail timestamp. The first correct entry will get #s 1 and 24, the second will get 2 and 25 and so on until all 46 numbers are reserved.

NOTE: In the event that all spots are NOT filled by the 10:00pm deadline on 3/23 (see next rule) the remaining open spots will be defaulted back to the original ticket owner.


- Contest Start Date/Time

This contest officially begins at 12 Noon on Thursday, March 22nd. At this time the TRIVIA QUESTION will be posted in this thread and correct entries will be accepted from only LGW.com Community Supporters for the first 24 hours. On Friday, March 23rd at 12 Noon the contest will open to ALL members.

Entry for this contest will promptly end at 10:00PM ET on Friday, March 23rd. This time is intentionally selected in order to have the Entry List posted in this thread so eligible members can see their numbers on the posted list prior to the drawing.


- Community Supporter Early Benefits

LetsGoWings.com wants to give back to those members that have generously contributed to the support of this web site and forum over the last several seasons! For this contest all LGW.com Community Supporters (CSers) will be given a 24-hour head start in this contest.

When the Trivia Challenge Question is posted only correct entries from CSers will be eligible. Any other entries are ineligible and will be deleted. Once the 24-hour deadline has passed all correct answers will be eligible for entry.


- Members that enter MUST have at least 25 posts

This will help prevent cheaters from registering multiple accounts. (Suspicious user accounts will be ineligible from the contest. This will be determined at my discretion.)


- How to Enter!

Members must submit their answer to contests(at)letsgowings.com using the same e-mail account that is attached to their LGW username and include the following:

- Trivia Answer
- LGW Username (only registered members may enter!)
- Your Name

A listing of all 23 eligible members will be listed in this thread once all spots have been filled.

Members will be contacted by the Private Messaging (PM) system here on the forums with a notification if their answer was correct or incorrect. Members with correct entries will be given their entry numbers at this time. Members with incorrect answers will be directed to enter again if they wish to do so. (Note: Members may not be notified immediately on whether their answer is correct or not, but will be notified as quickly as possible.)


- How to Win!

The MegaMillions (http://www.megamillions.com) drawing for Friday, March 23rd at 11pm ET will determine the winner.

The 6th (Mega Ball) number in the drawing will be used to determine the winner. The member that has his/her number selected will be contacted by myself so that arrangements can be made to pick up your tickets!

Hey Matt,

Checking into my account information, I realized that my listed email was one that I no longer had, so I had to change my email address to the one I am currently using and re-activated my account accordingly. Would this pose a problem to my eligibility?

Nope, you're eligible. As long as they match you're okay.

If I understand this correctly, it's entirely possible that all the available numbers would be taken by CSers before noon tomorrow before anybody else has a chance to enter - which I understand is a benefit of being a CSer in the first place.

So my question is, can I register a donation as a CSer & enter the contest all at the same time?

That's possible, yes.

Absolutely!

That's possible, yes.

Absolutely!

Thanks Vladdy!

Is there an update as to how many slots have been filled?

[wingslogo19 281]

Damn, i hate living in BC i can't enter this

[T-Ruff 47]

Question: how does the winner get a hold of the tickets?....are they mailed or picked up at a meeting place?

[Zetter is Better 0]

Damn, i hate living in BC i can't enter this

Same, except Ont.

[Matt 1,048]

Considering the short time frame, they would have to be picked up at an arranged meeting sometime over the weekend or on Monday prior to the game.

[Barrie 900]

Considering the short time frame, they would have to be picked up at an arranged meeting sometime over the weekend or on Monday prior to the game.

This is the reason why I'm not going to enter. I can make it to Detroit in 3 hours, but having to pick up tickets before hand, plus my work schedule, I can't make it in time.

If there's tickets for a Friday night or weekend game, I'll enter no question.

[Matt 1,048]

The contest is now open to all members!

so how'd you guys find the answer?

I found it on nhlpa.com

I found it on nhlpa.com

That probably would've been easier than what I did. I found a Red Wings roster from 93-94 via Google, which also had statistics. I narrowed down the list to players who had their first goal during the 93-94 season. Then did a Google search for "[Player Name] first NHL goal" until I found the answer.

Yeah thats what I did first, i origianally thought it was Lapointe or MaCarty, I looked up MaCarty and found out it was against the Jets, google took me to NHLPA.com, so I says to myself, "Well if they said macs first goal, maybe they'd say the others", so I just looked up everyother player.

I found a roster from 1993-94, looked at the ages of the players, assuming the younger players were more likely to have scored their first NHL goal that season, then went to the NHLPA web site and started looking them up.
