Sunday Links/DanGNR Quiz
Welcome one, welcome all! Here comes a few links, but I'm giving most of the spotlight to DanGNR with a quiz he sent in.
Hockey News:
- Rivermen force a Game 7 with a 2-1 victory!
- Penguins advance with a 3-0 win.
- Tortorella's water bottle display gets him suspended for Game 6. Ouch.
- Chicago puts down the Flames 5-1. 3-2 series lead for CHI. Don't let 'em get a big head over Second City.
- Sharks are still alive. 3-2 in OT to force game 6.
- Rangers/Caps and Devils/Canes on tap for tonight.
Other News:
- Dr. Frankentweed lets us know that the Detroit's reputation of being a dangerous city has made it across the pond.
- MONKEY SKATEBOARDING!
Quiz:
DanGNR should be along at some point during the day to post answers. Until then, don't be an ass and cheat by googling. I don't think you get anything for winning anyway.

1. I’m having a hard time remembering who all was traded, but I recall seeing something about Boston’s Michael Ryder scoring 4 goals against his former team (Montreal) than when he was playing FOR them. but I can’t remember if he was even traded during the season
2. Vancouver (west)
3. NY Rangers (east)
4. Anaheim (south)
5. Calgary (north)
{on these, I wasn’t sure if you meant teams in the playoffs or not so I put two answers (playoffs/entire NHL)}
6. Chicago (nearest)
7. Carolina / Colorado (latitude)
8. Detroit / Minnesota (longitude)
9. Chicago / Minnesota (elevation)
10. Carolina / Buffalo (elevation east)

Michael Ryder I believe was traded last offseason, and even if he wasn’t, he’s a forward, and not a defenseman. :)
