Not eight. And Baxter did not break any string.

I'm sure there are many, particularly from back in the 80s. But from recent times, I'd have to guess... Miikka, maybe?

[Dion]

Nope!

This player was a neighbour of mine when I was growing up in Maple Ridge part of Calgary

I thought I read something about Ference negotiating a deal by himself with Darryl but maybe not.

If he was a neighbour of yours Dion he must be ancient. And a Calgarian! My guess is Tim Hunter.

[TheScorpion]

Or maybe Vernie?

[Dion]

Another clue? He was chosen in the third round of the 1979 draft.

To the sin bin for you

Hunter is correct!!

Yeah, I thought the same thing about Ference. I seem to remember him telling the story when he used to post here. But my memory is a little foggy.

Wow that was a total guess.

Which two players led the Flames in points during the last lockout year?

Cammalleri, wasn't it? Was he tied with someone?


Prior to the 2012-13 season, for how many consecutive seasons was Iginla the Flames points leader? Who was the team's points leader the final year before Iginla's streak started?

I know this one. It was Val Bure, I believe, who IIRC scored 75 points in 2000 to beat Jarome who I think was in the 60s (61?). Furthermore Iginla led the team in goals in each of those seasons except one, when Cammalleri beat him with 39 in 09.

Cammy tied with someone in 13, yep. Conroy had retired and Iginla's total was cut short by the Penguins trade.

I'm definitely not an expert on this sort of thing but I'm pretty sure it was MacGyver. I don't remember who played the main character but I seem to remember the actor has three names.

Edit: I think it's Richard Dean Anderson.

MacGyver is correct.
