Who is the only hockey player to appear in the NHL playoffs 20 consecutive years?

Serbia · Post by **Serbia** » Wed May 23, 2007 8:56 pm

Consecutive... that's the sticker... and I saw this recently... arghh

Gold Knight · Post by **Gold Knight** » Wed May 23, 2007 8:59 pm

thats what makes it tricky, cuz others have been in for 20 years, just not in a row

Serbia · Post by **Serbia** » Wed May 23, 2007 10:22 pm

I'll say Patrick Roy.

I'm going to go with Ray Bourque, as it's vaguely possible that he pulled this off.

(but I already have another guess should this be wrong...

)

Roy isnt even close, and although Bourgque played in 21 playoff games, he wasnt in 20 consecutively.

A hint is he played with a team from Montreal...

Gold Knight · Post by **Gold Knight** » Fri May 25, 2007 9:14 pm

His name is also thesame as a fromer forward for the New York Knicks basketball team

Yeah I know the guy had to play for Montreal, that much is obvious (which is why I went with Roy, though I knew it was wrong before I wrote it)

I should know this! I'm going to kick myself as soon as it comes out...

Gold Knight · Post by **Gold Knight** » Sun May 27, 2007 12:39 pm

alright this questions gone on long enough

the answer was larry "big bird" robinson of the Montreal Canadiens, defenseman, who played 17 seasons with montreal and his final 3 with the LA Kings

Next question, switching to basketball:

The only American basketball player to win player of the year honors in both college and the pros.

Serbia · Post by **Serbia** » Sun May 27, 2007 12:53 pm

Shaq
