Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Do you think the Zamboni driver at the Scottrade Center LUBES the ice surface a little bit more on the visitor's goal crease?

Answer: Blues

The St. Louis Blues were one of the many teams who joined the NHL in 1967. These were the first expansion teams since the league had to reduce its size down to the "Original Six" because of the great depression and World War II in 1942. There have been some great players in NHL history that made a stop in the Blues' organization including Brett Hull, Chris Pronger, Adam Oates and Al MacInnis.
2. Do you suppose that REDS JEWEL ENVY IS suffered by the rest of the NHL when this team wins a Stanley Cup?

Answer: New Jersey Devils

Not only did the New Jersey Devils win the Stanley Cup in 1994-95, they also did it in 1999-00 and 2002-03. New Jersey has also been home to one of the greatest goalies of all time, Martin Brodeur. Brodeur has recorded some mind blowing stats during his career including 7 shutouts in the 2002-03 playoffs, the Calder Memorial Trophy in 1994, Vezina Trophies in 2003 and 2004 and he has scored a goal in both regular and post-season play!

The Dallas Stars, as a franchise, were born in 1967 in Minnesota and stayed there until they made the move to Dallas in 1993. The franchise won their first Stanley Cup in the 1998-99 season with the Conn Smythe Trophy going to Joe Nieuwendyk.
4. Was there a SNIPPING SHUTTERBUG in the arena when Ron Francis hoisted the Stanley Cup for this team in 1991?

5. Why did Pat Falloon wear JEANS SO tight when this team drafted him in 1991?

The Coyotes franchise was originally known as the Winnipeg Jets and didn't move to Phoenix until 1996. "The Great One" became part owner and head of hockey operations for the Coyotes in 2001. On August 8, 2005, Gretzky was named Head Coach despite the fact that he had never coached in his career.
8. Has anyone ever experienced PAROLE FIRSTHAND while playing for this franchise since its inception in 1993?

Answer: Florida Panthers

9. Do MIDTOWN ALIENS hang out this NHL team's arena, the Xcel Energy Center?

Answer: Minnesota Wild

10. Did a SKYLINE ANSWER ROD predict that this franchise would win 4 straight Stanley Cups from 1979-83?
