Trivia tidbit

Post by Cannie »

Hey once in a while I come across a nugget of information I feel compelled to share with the Canuckland masses...

If you know, or are having a guess, go ahead and post.
If you have to look it up, restrain yourself from posting the answer and pretending you are smart.


Which current Vancouver Canuck was part of the Eric Lindros trade that sent the big lunk from Quebec to Philadelphia?


Something to take our minds off the loss today.

I was going to take a guess...but I looked it up first.
My guess would have been wrong.
I had no idea. Doubt if anyone else will either.

Baumer?
Yup. I really don't even have anything close to an encyclopedic knowledge of hockey trivia, but this one I was able to come up with,

He's actually been playing pretty good on this road trip, apparently he's got a bit more in the tank than I gave him credit for. He's gotta be one happy guy for the opportunity he's receiving (thanks to Mathieu Schnieder).

Yes, Baumgartner.

The Canucks only dressed 6 defenseman today, so Baumer got 22 minutes. He must be as happy as a pig in shit, I heard the interview when he was called up last month, his first ticket to the show in 3 years, he realizes it is his last chance and has embraced it!

I've always been a big fan of Nolan Baumgartner since his days with the Kamloops Blazers.

Unfortunate at times when a first rounder ends up like as a journeyman and then an AHL'er, but I've always like Baumer. Glad to see him making the most of his opportunity here in Vancouver.
