Order these Montreal Canadiens players by the first season each played for the team. You place all 52 cards on one timeline, one at a time. Three wrong guesses ends the run.
Each card names a player who wore the Canadiens sweater, with a single letter for his position: C, L, R, D or G. Your goal is to line them up by the first season each one played for Montreal. One player is already on the timeline with his year showing. Slide every new card into the gap where you think he fits; a correct gap reveals the year, while a wrong one still sends him to his real spot and takes one of your three lives.
Montreal was there when the NHL began, so this roster reaches from the league's very first winters to the present. Goaltenders show up far more than any other position, and with so many of them spread through the deck, they are the trickiest cards to separate. The great dynasty stretches are crowded with teammates who overlapped for years. Be careful with players who spent their whole careers in Montreal; they usually joined earlier than their fame suggests.
Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
Here are 28 of the 52 cards you might be dealt, with 24 more in the deck. Their values stay hidden until you place them.
