Answer Key
Q1 Answer: c) Justin Williams – In nine career Game 7’s, Justin Williams stands first in the all-time Game 7 goal category with seven, second in assists with eight, and is tied for first for the most Game 7 wins. That is how he earned the nickname “Mr. Game 7”.
Q2 Answer: a) Patrik Laine – At just 20 years and 219 days old, Patrik Laine recorded the first five-goal game of his career, and did it at a younger age than any other active player, and the third youngest in NHL history, trailing just Wayne Gretzky and Don Murdoch.
Q3 Answer: d) Carey Price – With just seven goals in the NHL across his 202-game career, Paul Bissonnette’s first goal couldn’t have been scored against a better goalie than Carey Price. Bissonnette deflected a shot from Shaun Heshka and beat the soon-to-be superstar goalie.
