Correct!!!! Each have attempted 13 penalty shots in their career. Another NHL record for Ovie's taking.
It might be a penalty shot record but I don't think it would be a scoring record. Last night, they said he only has 4 goals on his penalty shot attempts. Would that be a record?

Right, I was referring only to penalty shot attempts. If Ovie gets one more kick at the can he'll own the record of attempted penalty shots outright. Pavel Bure owns the record for most penalty shot goals in a career with 7.

Correct!

@iceman69: You're new to the trivia threads, so this is your mulligan.


In the future, you must reply to the original question post, rather than to a reply, or a reply to a reply. Finding the question post is part of the game, (hint: follow the path of handle links in replies backwards). If you reply to a reply again, you receive one and a half lines of Robert De Niro.
