Figured I'd start a general trivia thread being that I have a trivia question. If anyone has others in the future just add them here. Ok, here is the question. Don't cheat.
Only 86 players in NHL history have ever worn the number 47. Four of those players wore it for the Islanders. Name them. -------------------- NY Islanders Hockey: Proud of the Orange and Blue

I believe it was Dick Tarnstrom.
What # did Steve Webb break in with? -------------------- Call me Nicky Flash...(why Nicky?)... because it rhymes with flash  5/24/1980=Greatest Day in NY Islanders history. 10/24/2012=Darkest Day in NY Islanders history The Islanders Axis of Evil: Wang, Snow, They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. |

That is correct. I remember asking Kevin Colley, being in the same mold as Webb, if that's why his first number was 62 also. He told me it's what they gave him. You think there was something behind giving him that number?

Billy Berg, Alex Mckendry, Jude Drouin, Daniel Marois and one of my favorites, Wendel Clark.
That former russian rag who won a cup with them and of course Greg Gilbert and current 17, Matt Martin. I know there's a bunch of others who's names totally escape me. --------------------    Showing zero tolerance for koolaiders and SnoWang apologists since 2007.
