Tips for scoring higher
- Think in eras: link a player to the decade and common teammates
- Use team associations: remember long-tenured franchises and notable trades
- Separate roles: defensemen, centers, wingers, and goalies often have different stat clues
- Watch for award cues: Hart, Norris, Vezina, and Conn Smythe hints narrow choices fast
- Don’t rush: with no timer, eliminate two options before guessing
