Answer Key

Q1 Answer: d) University of Michigan – Plenty of NCAA alumni play in the NHL each season, but in 2023-24, 30 players that once played for the Michigan Wolverines skated in at least one game, which led all NCAA teams.

Q2 Answer: b) Joffrey Lupul – In a deal sending Chris Pronger from the Edmonton Oilers to the Anaheim Ducks in 2006, Joffrey Lupul was part of the package the Oilers received. Three years later, Lupal, who was with the Philadelphia Flyers, was traded to the Ducks in a package that brought Pronger to the Flyers.

Q3 Answer: d) 502 – One of the NHL’s most unbreakable records belongs to Glenn Hall and his 502 consecutive regular season games started. This streak spanned from the 1955-56 season until the 1962-63 season when he missed a game due to a back injury.
