The summer doldrums of hockey. Puckdoku edition.

7/12 - Today's puckdoku.com features the Sabres. Leveraging @Zamboni's thread title.

I've got Chris Butler, the big-helmet version of Cory Conacher, and Maxim's magical season (whoa on the last one! That was too close.)

Sabres back on puckdoku today.

That's some good 1999 throwback right there. 

But I failed overall because I could've sworn McEachern played for the Kings in addition to the Sens.

I'm so much worse at this than i thought i would be 

I used lindback for sabres lightning lol

More Sabres puckdoku.com today.

EA NHL98 and 99 once again made my day for the Leafs/Blackhawks/Habs and goalies.

I did the trifecta of Mair, Konopka, and Houser. Pretty nice!

I've been wondering with these things.  Does the stat have to have been achieved while with the team listed or could it be any goalie who played for Buffalo at some point but then had the save percentage somewhere else?

 

edit: Oh, and does it acknowledge relocated teams too?  And then there's that complicated Jets history going across two different organizations.

For a game or season stat, yes, and for a career stat, no.

Once again on puckdoku. BUF and PHI, SJ, and OTT.

I went with Gratton, Kennedy, and Burgdoerfer.

40+ Playoff Games is a category today. Thinking back to the late '90s... who's a Philly player with a cool name? Boom. Petr Svoboda. And just as I tap submit, I see it: another Petr Svoboda. Incorrect!

Story of my life: selecting the wrong Svoboda.

There can't be anything worse than the 2 Sebastian Ahos.  They started in the league 1 year apart, so they can be differentiated, but not easily.  Now just imagine if they had started at the same time.  It's as close to 50/50 pick as you could possibly get.

Of course, as I say this, someone will probably wind up point out two players with the same exact name and identical career dates.

Both Svobodas Petr ended their NHL careers in 2001. Of course, the real Svoboda started in 1984. The other played 1-2 seasons.
