Really cool quiz I found online. How many players can you name that played from 2005/06 to 2011/2012?

Here is Detroit's quiz:

http://www.sporcle.c...ockouts-players

There are quizzes for several other NHL teams. The guy that is posting them seems to be adding a new team every day, so all teams should have quizzes posted soon.

For the Wings, I got 61/76 on my first try. Off the top of my head.

No cheating, folks :P

That was the only one I missed in the first column.

In the second column, I only missed Markov, Salei and Meech.

only "only one game" in those 6 years....I got it- who else?

Kopecky :shout:

He was forgettable when he was here too!

Money on the board-SCP 2013
I'm going with the 22 special. 2 bucks for every 22 goal. 2 bucks for every 22 fight
5 bucks for every series win....another 5 for every shut out! LETS GO RED WINGS!!
ADDENDUM: Since it looks like Toots may not reinserted in the series, I would like to offer Bert his money on the board. So, 2 bucks for every Bert fight, 2 bucks for every Bert goal AND since OT has been a pattern, I want to add 5 bucks for any RED WINGS OT winner. LET'S GO RED WINGS!!!!

How did i forget Chelios, yet remembered Mark Hartigan?? Also figuring out how to spell Samuelsson's name killed like 6 minutes! This is an awesome quiz!

59/76

I should've had a few of those that I missed...

I actually forgot about Hudler as well, but remembered freakin' Markov who started on the first defensive pairing with Saint Nick in the freaking 2007 WCF.

51/76, forgot a lot of easy ones. Lang, Markov, Lebda, Lilja, Modano. Damn.

Very cool. How is it that I remembered Stafford and forgot Kindl?

I was really freaking out until I had 6 minutes left and realized that I had no goalies. I lost a lot of time recalling names from before the lockout, and couldn't spell Woolley right to save my life.

It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I thought that we had to put the names in the right blanks.

Thanks for posting!

My money on the board pledge:

$1 for each goal scored by a player after whom I have named a hamster.

An additional $5 for each hat trick scored by a player after whom I have named a hamster.

An additional $10 if any of the above goals is the GWG goal that gives us the series win.

An additional $50 if it is the GWG that wins us the Cup.

$5 for a SO by Jimmy.

Hamsters' names (current players in RED):  Henrik Pavel Tomas Nicklas Dominik

                                                                      Niklas Matthieu Daniel Robert

                                                                      Johan Andreas Valtteri Jonathan

                                                                      Andrew Patrick Ian Todd

                                          And introducing:  Jordin Damien Gustav James

TOTAL SO FAR: $36

The biggest name I missed was Chris Chelios :( Also forgot Modano, too.

I just took Calgary's quiz:

59... also missed Kopecky, guess he was just forgettable. Forgot Smith, kind of embarassing since it was last year. Got Brad Norton, thinking of Brad May. Was confused when it said he only played 6 games.

I would prefer to forget Lebda but I didn't. I somehow got Cory Cross too but whiffed on the big red 'fro that is Mike Commodore. My major misses where Brad May & Mike Modano. 59/76 for me.

Got 52, missed Lang, May, Conklin but perhaps most embaressing I couldn't spell Filippula correctly in 20 minutes, not even convinced I spelt it right there!

Valtteri Filppula is easy to spell. Just remember: Each has 8 letters, a consonant, a vowel, a single consonant, a double consonant, a vowel, another consonant, and another vowel.

If that's too much, just remember that the middle 2 letters are doubled in each, and neither has a double L.

Haha, thanks for that! I'm a bit slow so it might take me a few tries to remember that!

I forgot how to post videos here, but Cory Cross's dismantling of Steve Ott is one of the greatest pugilistic moments in modern Red Wings history. I couldn't forget him for that.

How many people got Matt Hussey? lol


I did!

I remembered the Ellis/Hussey/Langfeld line. One of my favorite lines ever for comical reasons.
According to my profile, my reputation is excellent. LOL.
