life

tour of the geek and sundry studios and
one of the questions always good asses

her after the tour I wouldn’t do a board
room to say goodbye to everyone and
thank them all and took about a minute

where drew Goldberg arrow
congratulations you are a VR specialist
on all your success and you’re also the
master of ceremonies on the rogers
hockey town tour where Ron MacLean was
happy to be your partner not the other
way around how did that work out that
was that was the weirdest thing
a great experience to be on the Rogers
hometown hockey tour and what you’re
talking about is specifically just out
of nowhere I’m doing crowd work and I’m
not supposed to be on camera and Ron
just comes over cameras come over and he
just goes on this two minute rant about
how he specifically says Don Cherry’s
his partner on saturdays and rodrigo
here’s my partner on sundays which might
be good yes you bet you believe that
I don’t blue over there we go all the
next repairs are already David about
knowledge and strategy on their way to
creating a list of the top 10 greatest
players who played in their 40s the
hockey pros at WatchMojo was selected 20
players who they feel are most likely to
make this list gentlemen this is your
draft pool turns out there’s a lot of
players who retire 40 years old so we
cut down the field a bit for this draft
pool only players who retired at the age
of 41 or older qualify just for fun
we’ve hit in a couple of names those are
a wild cards you can pick those at any
time and we’ve also selected a player
who we feel is most likely to be at the
top of the list and that is our MVP mr.
hockey Gordie Howe he’s off the table
for now
team blue quick question for you what’s
more important longevity past 40 or the
overall skill level that you have when
you’re past four years old I would say
skill level yeah yeah an average of the
two I mean if you will okay I wouldn’t
talk about skill level are you just
talking about what they do productive
they sort of still be productive they
have to still be putting up points
giving valuable minutes to their team
okay do you run agree with that yeah
absolutely I mean if you’re just hanging
around the team just say just to you
know look like a workhorse or sub like
that or maybe just racking up penalty
minutes that you’re not on my lineup
yeah it’s gonna be easy for you guys
already agreed with here for now all
right on the way there Steve all right
teams let’s dive in time for the entry
draft
in the Entry Draft each team will have a
chance to pick some players to get them
started will go back and forth
playground style until both teams have
their first three picks you guys want
the bingo tournament backstage so you
guys get the big first who will it be I
think I mean we were talking about you
had a difference and we had a difference
in opinion although I think let’s go a
little yours for ya Lou yours first okay
guys we’re gonna take jock plump
jean-claude yes ma’am I choked me it’s
good pick your counter pick team red
yeah okay yeah all right so we’re gonna
go for Nicklas Lidstrom all right like a
bit gotta go with the main man Jaeger
yeah yeah Marie yeah yeah ger the
ageless wonder what’s this guy gonna
stop they’re not going to play forever
anyway try to beat out Gordie Howe all
right yeah he read your counter pick
Chris Chelios Chris Chelios Chelios
officially retired in 2010 at the age of
48 his post 40 years old career included
a Stanley Cup in 2002 with the Red Wings
and also another one 2008 the pick T
blue need your pick maybe going in there
you want to some people yeah Latinos so
I hit blank stream with team slanting
life in it
team red your final pick alright so uh
yet we’re going to go with a goalie our
first goalie mark Campbell ha OH two
full seasons with the devils after
turning 40 and then he played seven
games as a member of the st. Louis Blues
before retiring went to the Stanley Cup
final in 2012 just after he turned 40
good stuff data curiosity team red if
you’re the oldest guy in the locker room
is that an automatic
he’s our leader we should lean on this
guy or can some of the young guys do it
I mean I think it they should definitely
respect the veteran in the in the room
he’s the one that’s been there the
longest he knows the way it is and I
think he’d definitely be able to lead
the team through that experience
valuable for you guys in terms of age
valuable but not not for the not to be
the captain certainly I think any any
veteran on your team is going to be
somebody that the red the young guys
look up to but there’s been a lot of
great young captain’s and in the legal
so it’s not a guarantee for you guys no
no but I think it is important for like
those more experienced players to train
the upcoming captain’s a younger
captain’s like that relationship is
really strong and suit actually a lot in
the Canadiens is they have like mo
of kind of coaching some of the newer
younger players to get them to be nice
or yeah or so well said so you guys are
off to a rock and we’ll start with your
first three picks but we’re about to
make things a little bit more difficult
a tie for the next period date night if
our teams want to get the best possible
players in their next seven draft picks
I need to rely on your hockey knowledge
because game night is all about trivia
every time a team answers a question
correctly they get to draft first the
first two questions are a one-on-one
trivia showdown whoever buzzes in first
gets to answer if they get it wrong the
other team can steal and if neither of
them get it right the person who buzzed
in first wins the round and of course
that’s pick all right Derek so Steve
Nash come on up here all right hey glad
to be here with Harry Potter’s dad over
here steroids are kicking it here we go
your question for most players
multi-goal games are few and far between
especially at a certain age in 2015
which right-winger became the oldest
player to ever record a hat-trick Graeme
Ryoga that’s correct
harry hagrid in January 2015 Jaeger
recorded a hat-trick at 42 years old
surpassing legendary Gordie Howe who
scored his final hat-trick 241
I don’t know thank you feeling that’s
very good because I knew the answer a
lot of you guys the back position get
you some insurance okay happy we rose up
smartest what’s a stupid element the
drop leaves we chose them guys remember
it’s your pick team red go ahead go for
it
Daniel Alfredsson Daniel Alfredsson
played two seasons after turning 40 the
first one with the sense where he was a
point per game over 10 games in the
playoffs and then one last season with
the Detroit Red Wings good call all
right your counter pick T blue all right
what do you think mmm you’re like you
want you want to go with the true
Canadian Tim Horton yeah let’s go with
Tim Orton Tim Orr I like it all right
all right I curiosity uh none of you
have chosen the wild cards just saying
just say all right tell me Julie
where’d you go come on up let’s go buddy
take them down so Harry Potter said
Harry Potter crystal ball we’re ready
been sawed yourself oh yeah I love that
thank you Amy I’m not jokes are the best
gentlemen your question is normally the
title of the league’s most prolific
scorer goes to players in their prime of
their careers but that isn’t always the
case which electrifying québécois
player is the oldest to win the Art Ross
Trophy as the leader in points in a
field no idea oh that would be incorrect
we are looking for the most electrifying
kippot qua player who would be the
oldest to win the Art Ross Trophy
french-speaking league leader in point I
mean an answer Iran that is incorrectly
or is not the correct answer because you
buzz didn’t you guys get it correct
answer is marked an st. Louis
are you 7 years old when he won in 2005
and if you were to guess Mineola Covey
about being a good guest you got close
all right have you guys go back to your
positions
ok and let’s pull up the drop pool once
more and team blue you’ve earned
yourself a right to pick first
yes we’re going to take Mark Messier
which would be wildcard 1 or walk our to
and secondly how do you have to be on no
anything wild card water won’t hurt you
I’m going to say wild card 1 it’s mark
Lancia Messier scored 7 points as a
forty-year-old in 2000 2001 in 2003
Messi Eclipse Gordie Howe to become the
second highest point scorer in NHL
history and in his final season he was
named to the all-star team for the 15th
time to pick Thank You Caliphate see
what you guys are ok so I think it’s fun
to go to pull the authority on Russia
would make a Russian accent well that’s
the worst scenario
Igor Larionov Mariano okay accent
Australian well they needed some offense
so far yeah it seems kicking their butt
right now and often for these next two
questions you might be kicking their
butt but for these next few questions
we’re setting up the heat instead of
getting one traffic for correct answer
teams will win to also the winner of
this round will get a big boost by
forcing a trade so they could take their
least desirable player and swap it out
for the other teams top pick I’ll read
out a question that will require a team
to place four items in the right order
teams get used to play it or pass it
being right wins in the next pick
questions for your gentlemen team red
question is place these players who
played in their 40s in order for most
career points to fewest before I give
you your options would you like to play
or can always pass it over these guys
what I say pass me I think you know
Lindsey let’s go back over there I tell
us okay what we got go
your options are Gordie Howe Chris
Chelios Jaromir Jagr ray Whitney go team
red quick question for you players who
play in their 40s you consider them for
like selfish is it time to hang them up
no I think if you’re healthy enough to
play in the game and you’re still able
to have you know great seasons keep
going
I mean as a kid this is what you work
for your entire life rate growing up you
you went to school you went to you went
to a hockey practice this is all you did
this is what you’ve always wanted
you’re still there like Steve said if
the skill level still there the compete
is still there why not
alrighty blue let’s see if you have the
skill level necessary to answer this
correct we ask you to place these
players who put in their 40s in order
from most career points to fewest you
said Gordie Howe Jaromir Jagr ray
Whitney Chris Chelios and that is
incorrect in Helena yeah Gordie Howe Ray
William answers Chelios yeah 1893 for ya
ger 1854 Gordie Howe 1064 for a Whitney
and Chris chili with a 948 on a Saito
just surpassed the top 5 career point
leaders only one player retired before
the age of 40 and that was
Gretsky Gretsky all right you guys you
get some help so we’re let man and I
take this one you guys got that question
incorrect so therefore you guys earned
yourself the right two toothpicks and a
swap this could be a game Jacob reason
so what are your first two picks
oh let’s see let’s see do we we can’t go
for that MVP I can not yet
let’s go wild card number two that’s
right while coming over to Ed Belfour
nice play two seasons in the NHL after
turning 41 with Toronto and one with
Florida missing the playoffs both times
eclipse Terry saw Chuck four career wins
in 2005 making him third all-time all
right your second pick um I I think it’s
something go for the golden Bret right
all right uh-huh yeah I will then Bret
your counter picks gentlemen two picks
counter picks okay what do you think I’m
gonna lean on you for this one yeah all
right we’re going to take since they
decided on Alba Ed Belfour whose numbers
sucked in his 40s will take Dominik
Hasek who had 28 wins 38 wins 27 wins to
end his 40 this year my most most
intimidating goaltender’s of all oh yeah
it’s not the most I couldn’t agree more
Dominik Hasek your second pick let’s go
with Julian you got anybody up there I
need a pick go with that you want to
Adam yeah let’s do Adam oh yeah animal
see I don’t write animals Dominic how
shitty you have earned yourself the
right to swap a player out give
something up take one away who will it
be alright so we are going to give away
Eddie Belfour
oh yeah and we are going to take sure
sir that was a great pic of my Jaromir
Jagr oh my god himself for years
alright so you’re still in it yeah whoo
their classic dick move how you know we
didn’t want to completely you know
evaporate you guys right away it’s not
all lost because for this next question
the winner once again gets too thick add
a get to go on the powerplay meaning
they get to send one of their opponents
to the penalty box for the next round as
questions for you gentlemen okay
goalies are not bunch which might
explain why they tend to stay in the
game for a long time place these
goaltender’s from oldest to youngest in
their final NHL appearance before I give
you your options you wish to play you
pass it over to these guys we’re doing I
mean sorry cuz we can return the favor
when you pass over and pass it over
let’s see how they do all right we’ll
pass it over go to the past
what’s one up there you’re getting a
little scared your office is barred cage
ridin Tim Thomas Martin blow dial and
Jacque blunt go do you agree with Gordie
Howe being the MVP some people would say
you are Mary anger right yeah we were
talking about it yeah I I would put
Gordie Howe I mean you look at in his
40s three years over a hundred points
you know 51 years old playing with the
Hartford Whalers 41 points for a 51 year
old in the NHL so yeah a credit is it
how many points 41 points 41 points is a
fifty-year-old or do you give it 60 at
the age of 43 by Jaromir Jagr in today’s
league hardest I can’t compare leagues
you can’t compare the will keep will
keep different era so the majority of
it’s like at the post 40 years or in a
different league anyway all right I mean
real competitive league though all right
let’s take a look gentlemen we ask you
to place these goaltender’s from oldest
to youngest in their final NHL
appearance
you said knock table adaiah Tim Thomas
Jacques Plante and Ken Dryden and that
is incorrect mark a border kid comic
then Ken Dryden I experienced it ellipse
but do you guys know who the oldest was
to ever play goal oh no it was mo
Roberts he was in age of 45 and he was
also when he started he had his NHL
debut was 19 and that was also a record
for the youngest goalie in many HOH Pez
bouquet all right so you got that
incorrect therefore you have earned
yourself the right for two picks and
some one of these guys for the box I
cannot wait all right
it’s going to be tough to choose which
one of them to send over okay to say
their votes so terrible huh
I don’t you want to go want to go we
need to pick that and want to
yeah let’s go we’ll take Doug Harvey
well the greatest defenseman of all time
yeah and Ron Francis mmm all you man
okay we’ll take Ron Francis as well on
Francis teamwork
he turned 40 in the 2002-2003 season
just after capting the Hurricanes to the
Stanley Cup Finals holds all major
franchise records for the Hurricanes not
too shabby
all right team read your counter picks
we’re going to take Bobby Hull okay and
then the family and Gary Roberts Gary
Roberts all right all right
fun part of the show where you guys get
to decide who goes into the penalty box
who will it be
there are phage dudes that bully what do
you think I mean mom always told me
never trust a person with such a
perfectly trimmed beard but he just been
like glaring at us all guy no yeah I
like we’re gonna send Steve get over to
the penile area that’s this yes yeah
yeah but you’re a fairy too – order
until I out of the words right you’re
taking two for the team get in that very
boxing anybody out there in the bar
that’s a bucket tent to set them off the
penalty box yeah yeah I’m glad for you
guys yeah I think so all right so all
right now the team here the short end is
holding up the team for the most part
right let’s see what they’re made of
your 5 for the spoon drill teams have to
answer five rapid-fire questions whoever
gets more correct hits that sweet sweet
MVP be mortal 40 how teams can work
together on this one of course one team
is short-handed the good news for them
though in the case of a tie they win
here we go gentlemen
okay after a long career full of broken
limbs bruises and lost teeth and
nine-to-five doesn’t sound too bad which
career did these players pursue after
they retired from the NHL question one
Sean Avery
talent agent or advertising executive
question two Gila Fleur owner of a
helicopter rental company or owner of a
fishing shop question three hearing the
lineups best PKR hear no more about it
question three Donald Brashear owner of
a demolition company or owner of a
construction company
I think the answer is clear question
four I’m glad you think hens ride in
this politician or owner of a dry
cleaner the little gun please Marcel
Dionne owner of a diner or owner a
sports equipment store all right teams
where’d we go short-handed
how’d you do that’s kind of confident
having said okay then is that a Eve I
hear violins having the melody phonics
thing this line of questioning at all at
all at all Sean Avery we asked you which
career do these players pursue after
they retire from the NHL team blue you
said advertising executive team Reggie
said talent agent the correct answer was
advertising executive all right team
blue well done next question Gila Fleur
we asked you was in order of a
helicopter rental company or did he own
a fishing shop team blue you said the
helicopter engine company peed Ready Set
fishing shop correct answer is order of
a helicopter rental company these guys
while donning I heard Steve crying in
the Family Dollar Brashear owner of a
demolition company or order of a
construction company you both answered
demolition company correct answer wives
construction company all kind of wrong
surprising I think double election right
Dalibor sure is I know you match the
personality right with your job
that’s right team red and I look into
good ol fisheries you shouldn’t I’m
confident we got the last two so you’re
done buddy just on a side note if these
guys get any more correct they will win
the MVP and you will be left with the
last pick on the board and to say was
they got both and they will be getting
on the advantages I actually know who
Johnny Bower is unlike oh no idea all
right here we go Ken Dryden team blue
you said politician team Reggie said
politician and that is correct people
these are all done you guys I’m gonna do
something
Hey well done well done you’ve heard
yourself the MVP that is Gordie Howe how
is the only player to play in the NHL in
five different decades named to the
all-star team twenty-three times
retired from hockey at the age of 52
playing alongside his son’s good pick
and you get the final pick on the board
and that is Johnny Bower who played five
full seasons with the least after
turning 40 including one where he shared
the best in the trophy with Terry
sawchuck and another where they won the
cup became the oldest goalie to play in
a playoff game at age 44 1969 son ambu
Peterson pretty Gordie Howe and goalie
how does the flesh that he shared the
trophy right yes sharing is caring and
on a side note on a side note Marcel
Dionne we have given you the options of
owner of a diner owner of a sports
equipment store and it was the owner of
a diner that was a tricky question
because beside his diner
he owns a memorabilia shop some
memorabilia yeah I know I don’t have to
turn it over we like her in tricky here
ago that we said diner yeah but is threw
me off why we had that one either one
would have gone well the drop pool is
now empty and I’m not getting any
younger so that’s the end of game base
it’s time for the final countdown
you read your back a full-strength
welcome back to the ice Steve he needed
you he missed you
oh yeah uh-huh I had one job that would
I get mildly how is the penalty box that
was pretty painful to watch Rodrigo on a
lot warmer than it is over here sunshine
are you that’s right there dr figs from
peds the one to create their list of the
top ten greatest players who played in
their 40s gentlemen you have 60 seconds
and then we’ll check out your lists your
time starts now think about this a third
of the players in the NHL weren’t even
born when Jaromir Jagr first broke into
the league here’s the lineups list of
the top three laws of mortality that
Jaromir Jagr has defied number three
it’s all downhill after 40 JJ has racked
up 204 points in 282 games after the big
four oh he holds the record for most
points in a season by a player age 43 or
older which 60 and somehow he’s still
going strong number 2 you get less cool
with age the ones private check bad boy
has opened up over the years showing us
more of his personality and sense of
humor and gaining leads in the fan to
the process you know when PK Subban
arguably the coolest player in the
league and steal the show at the
all-star game by paying tribute to you
that makes you certified cool number one
age slows you down in a league that’s
going younger and faster yeah giris kept
up by constantly notching up his
training regimen he’s now known for his
intense workouts that would make anyone
else
tap out pretty quick at this point
there’s no telling what law hockey’s
Benjamin Budd will break next speaking
of getting older Derek Paige talk about
our list I know you’re talking about my
age for a nightmare I am probably oldest
here are lists we’re happy with our list
actually the trade the thing that they
had we thought was going to hurt us but
getting getting Gordie Howe made up for
it okay yeah grrrrrr yeah it was a Fred
Bell Florida I wasn’t happy to get Ed
Belfour let’s take a look so we’ve got
Gordie Howe number one Teemu Selanne
number three he was Salani number three
mark Matthew had some good years you
spoke very highly of Dominik Hasek yet
you only ranked him number six what’s
going on there yeah well I think we
wanted to spread things though we put
Jacques Plante in there at number two
his his stats were incredible in his 40s
he only had
to the age of 44 he was under three
goals per game he had two of those years
in his forty under two goals per game
one was 1.88 so that’s why we put him up
there I have all this memorized states
just like I all of it
I mean Jacques Plante with all those
fantastic what 2030 game seasons yeah he
was really good so a few rare yes I’ll
give you the floor talk to me about your
list well you know okay
again that yogur swap definitely I
brought our list up we’ve got arguably
two of the best defenseman all-time
arguably one of the best goalies of all
time I think that despite not having a
shot at Gordie Howe we definitely have
the best overall list Bobby Holland
number three buddy yeah shocking there’s
two things that catch catch by on that
first of all Johnny Bower number 10
that’s surprising and number 3 Bobby
Hall ahead of Chris Chelios two cups in
his 40s 2002 2008 you still put him
where would you put number four really
ahead of behind Bobby Hall I mean we’ve
got we got to get something for the
folks at home to argue about all right
however you got a lot riding on one
moment is all we’re trying to say I will
say very fair if I had to make a choice
