Wow, are these off the top of your head? I'd say Montreal in 1976.

Well done again. Too specific for me, but I still enjoy what people can come up with randomly. Who is the only player to have won a Stanley Cup with both the Rangers and the Islanders. (pretty obscure)

Gil Gilbert? I think either the first or last name might be right...but not 100% sure without the google.

While we're waiting - this is one of my favorite stats:
From 1892 till now (that's 120 years), how many Stanley Cup champion teams have been captained by a non-Canadian? Bonus points if you can name them.

Nope, didn't mean him. I think he only played for Detroit and Boston. This is bugging me. I caved and tried google and can't even find the answer. I still think Gil or Gilbert is part of the answer (I remember my dad and uncles having this conversation years ago...)

Greg Gilbert kind of sounds right. But I could be mixing him up with the guy that coached the flames about 10 years ago.

OK, now you've got me totally confused  Clark Gillies definitely played and won cups with the Islanders but I don't think he played in Manhatten.

Oops, Hatcher 1999. Had to go back thru the cup winners to remember the Stars in 99. The controversial OT goal by Hull.

Yep, you got 'em. Only four non-Canadian captains of championship teams in 120 years of the Stanley Cup. Prior to 1998 it was zero....

To whiten your teeth, should you brush vigorously after dipping your toothbrush in: (a) mashed potatos; (b) mashed bananas; or (c) mashed strawberries?

Nope...
Strawberries contain a lot of malic acid, which is a type of astringent that decreases the appearance of stains on the surface of teeth. It interacts with teeth stains by oxidizing them, which works to lift discoloration and makes teeth appear to be brighter.
A popular way to use strawberries is to combine them with a little baking soda. This is a highly effective pairing because the baking soda scrubs away these stains, while the malic acid dissolves them.
Here's another:
Each year does the Moon move away from the Earth by: (a) two inches; (b) two feet; or (c) two miles?
