Hockey trivia thread not necessarily focused on the Rangers. Answer the question and ask one of your own.

1st Question: In honor of Ryan Glenn, who played his first AHL game to tonight and started the season on an ECHL rookie contract...

NAME THE ONLY SURVIVING TEAM FROM THE ECHL'S INAUGURAL SEASON

NAME THE ONLY SURVIVING TEAM FROM THE ECHL'S INAUGURAL SEASON

Johnstown Chiefs. I think they were originally called the Jets back in the old NAHL, but when they were revived in the ECHL in '88, they were renamed the Chiefs as a tribute to Slap Shot.

Which player holds the NHL record for most shorthanded goals scored in one game? How many goals?

*hint: he was a one-time Ranger, although he did not accomplish the feat as a Ranger.

BUMP!

Here's another hint: His last name starts with F and ends with Leury.

Who's Fitzleury?

How about this one: back in '88, what player scored one goal of each type (even-strength, powerplay, short-handed, penalty shot, and empty-netter) and against what team?

Adam Graves. (For one pre-season game or something like that).

What was the first team to move from Canada to America?

It's perhaps a trick question. The actual first team might be considered the Hamilton "Tigers" who were sold as a team (in terms of players) to what became the New York Americans.

A few years later, the orginal Ottawa Senators became the St Louis Eagles for one season before suspending operations for good.

Sorry, I meant to check the board earlier. Mario is right. Icelanders is wrong.

...and while we're on the topic, why is it the Icelanders? Don't you think that's a little unfair? I like Iceland.

I always thought it was against the Rangers...half the "bad" records in the league seem to be against them ;)

It'd make sense also in that Mario was a big-time Ranger-killer. I think he did score 5 against us once.

Fortunately this is one record that does not go against the Blueshirts.
