For NHL; Peter Stastny for the 80s???
That's impossible *edit its actually alot closer than I ever would have imagined....

Jari Kurri shows 1043
Peter Stastny shows 1024
So Kurri *DID* outscore Stats in the 80s but not by much

Kurri point total is correct, at 1043 From 1980/81 to 1989/90 seasons, but
add the points totals for Stastny from 1980 -1981 season to the 1989-1990 season he has 1059 points.

If your question is the "80s" you can't include after Dec 31 1989
The season goes 89-90 but you would stop counting there (and it shows Stats went on a tear for end of season which would not count to his total)

Anyhow
Either way still way closer than I expected

Name the 3 Expos pitchers that have thrown no hitters.



D, Martinez is correct, but
Johnson and Pedro weren't Expos when they accomplished the feat

Your question did not specifically say "while with the team" so I wasn't sure. I took it as they were Expo pitchers and they did pitch no-hitters. Oh well.

Maybe, like on Jeopardy, we can check with the judges.;)

Ok here's one

Name the only professional player who won championships, in the SAME city, while playing for different teams?


*just to throw you guys a hint; you need to consider expansion teams and teams who have relocated, so its not as simple as looking at the obvious metropolises

How about another hint? What sport?

There's been expansion in all 4 of the major sports.

What Leaf player holds record for most short handed goals in a season?
Click to expand...
I think it is Zack Hyman with 7 from a few years ago . All time leader was Dave Keon. Back in 1946/47 defenseman Gus Mortson had 2.
He was also noted for fighting Gordie Howe in an all star game. Howe, who IMO was the best all round player ever. His best goal scoring season was in 1952/53 with 49 goals in 70 games, third year in a row scoring over 40. He was also one of the toughest, dirtiest players in the game,also known as Mr. elbows and never lost a fight. There were and are better goal scorers but none were or are better all-round players than him.
