[chooch*]

Man, this guy's first defence partner was rookie Tom Kurvers.

How fast can you go back from Chelios to 1917 using only teammates?

How fast from Chelios to Morenz?

[Sens Rule]

Chelios-Lafleur 83-84
Lafleur-Henri Richard 71-72
Henri Richard-Rocket RIchard 55-56
Rocket Richard-Jack Portland 42-43
Jack Portland-Howie Morenz 33-34

So five players

 

[reckoning]

1917- Chelios in 6 moves:

(`17) Joe Malone to Aurel Joliat (`23 Mtl)
Aurel Joliat to Toe Blake (`36 Mtl)
Toe Blake to Doug Harvey (`48 Mtl)
Doug Harvey to Rod Gilbert (`64 NYR)
Rod Gilbert to Lucien Deblois (`78 NYR)
Lucien Deblois to Chris Chelios (`85 Mtl)

 

[GKJ]

It's easy when someone plays with an Original 6 team for more than a few years.



Want a challenge? Joe Malone to Kurtis Foster.



Go.

1917- Chelios in 6 moves:

(`17) Joe Malone to Aurel Joliat (`23 Mtl)
Aurel Joliat to Toe Blake (`36 Mtl)
Toe Blake to Doug Harvey (`48 Mtl)
Doug Harvey to Rod Gilbert (`64 NYR)
Rod Gilbert to Lucien Deblois (`78 NYR)
Lucien Deblois to Chris Chelios (`85 Mtl)

Chris Chelios to Claude Lemieux ('90 Mtl)
Claude Lemieux to Brian Rolston ('95 NJ)
Brian Rolston to Kurtis Foster ('06 Min)

Sorry, I can't get to 6 unless I count Lemaire since he's the Wild coach.

Cris Chelios did an ESPY sketch with Samuel L. Jackson
Samuel L. Jackson was in The 51st State, with Michael J. Reynolds
Michael J. Reynolds was in Where the Truth Lies with Kevin Bacon

Nicely done.

Bleah, this is going to be pretty bad...

Joe Malone -> '23 Sylvio Mantha
Sylvio Mantha -> '36 Woody Dumart
Woody Dumart -> '53 Ed Sandford
Ed Sandford -> '55 Gordie Howe (heh heh)
Gordie Howe -> '80 Gordie Roberts
Gordie Roberts -> '93 Sergei Zholtok
Sergei Zholtok -> '03 Marian Gaborik
Marian Gaborik -> '05 Kurtis Foster

I think using Gordie Howe could be considered cheating...

 

[arrbez]

I can do Gordie Howe to Fedor Fedorov in two moves



*edit*

because i am so smrt. you is all jealous.
