Answer Key

Q1 Answer: d) Sam Gagner – Among the seven active players who have played on eight different NHL teams, Sam Gagner isn’t one of them. Gagner has played with seven different teams (Edmonton Oilers, Detroit Red Wings, Winnipeg Jets, Columbus Blue Jackets, Philadelphia Flyers, Vancouver Canucks, Arizona Coyotes). After signing a professional tryout with the Carolina Hurricanes, he could be playing for his eighth different team this coming season but has not yet.

Q2 Answer: a) Auston Matthews – WIth 368 goals in just eight seasons in the NHL, Auston Matthews has been scoring at a phenomenal rate. He has passed many players with much longer, and still successful careers, and has a chance at entering the top 10 as soon as this season.

Q3 Answer: c) Curtis Lazar – As the fans of the Ottawa Senators celebrated Andrew Hammond’s “Hamburglar” run, they opted to throw hamburgers onto the ice, and one of those times, Senators center Curtis Lazar picked one up and started to eat it.
