	Where's the Ottawa Silver Seven? Loved the quiz, and the comments too.

	ascottharv:	Mar 27th, 2011 at 14:16 GMT	3 points
	I kept trying St Pats for Toronto because that is what I have always heard them called

	jhlzq3:	Mar 27th, 2011 at 15:05 GMT	5 points
	@koopa08, great hockey IQ, the reason the silver seven are absent, is because they were primarily known as the silver seven from 1903 to 1906, but after that (i.e. the whole time in the NHL) they were the Senators @ascottharv, good catch, I must've forgotten to put it, I'll go back and fix it right now

	Actually in regards to the Blueshirts, that was the name of the NHA Toronto team, the formal name for the Toronto teams was never finalized, but was registered as the Arenas later on. @koopa08 The Silver Seven were pre-NHL.

	Also it was a great quiz. Nice work.

	jhlzq3:	Mar 27th, 2011 at 15:24 GMT	4 points
	@Linden16, thank you first of all, secondly you are 100% correct, I include the Blueshirts since the Arenas used their players that season, but had no name. I thought that this was the commonly accepted way to talk about that team

	i thought the vancouver millionaires were a team?

	Linden16:	Mar 28th, 2011 at 18:46 GMT	2 points
	@___ The Vancouver Millionaires were a PCHL (and later WHL) team.

	ok thanks didnt realize that

	Just a nitpick here, but "Golden" does not describe the color of the Golden Gate Bridge. The bridge is actually a kind of vermilion color. The strait it crosses was known as the "Golden Gate" long before the bridge was built, named after the "Golden Horn" of Byzantium (before the discovery of gold in California). But most likely the Golden Seals were so named because of the many golden things in the Golden State, including the gold color of Golden Seals owner Charlie Finley's other team, the Oakland A's, the local college team the Golden Bears, etc.

	@adamnvillani, you're completely right, I was using it as a play on words more than actual color, but the rest of your comment is an interesting history lesson, so thanks!

	@jhlzq3, 5 star quiz and I also have to apologize to you. I recently created a quiz that is very similar to this one. This quiz didn't come up when I did a search so I never realized it. If it had I never would have created the one I did. Mine is a bit different so maybe there's room for both but again, I'm sorry for the similarity and I just wanted you to know it wasn't intentional.

	jhlzq3:	Jun 9th, 2011 at 02:53 GMT	1 point
	@MandaandKris, don't worry about it, that seems to be the case for a lot of quizes on here, I'm not upset or offended, and thanks for the praise

	Great quiz, forgot the Eagles. Side note - The Toronto team in the 1917-18 season were officially know as the Toronto Hockey Club.

	robvd:	Oct 17th, 2011 at 05:31 GMT	2 points
	You need to add the new Jets to the quiz

	jhlzq3:	Oct 18th, 2011 at 14:26 GMT	1 point
	@Albinowolf, Hockey Club is now an accepted answer, and @robvd, the Jets are now on there
