About This Quiz

Alright, NHL fanatics! The Hart Trophy is the ultimate status symbol. It’s been handed out to the MVP every season since 1924. If your name’s on that plaque, you’re officially hockey royalty.

You know the deal: Gretzky claimed nine. Nine! Just unfair. McDavid’s stacking them up with three. And Bobby Orr? He owned the '70s, snagging three years in a row!

Here’s the mission: We give you the year and the team. You gotta guess the MVP name. (Spoiler: The “simple” part? Yeah, not so much.)

This challenge covers a hundred years of history, from gritty defensemen to old-school goalies. We’re talking players you might need a search engine for! Recent names are gimmes, but those seriously old-school legends? That’s where the diehards stand out from the casuals.

Alright, enough talk. Let’s see what you’ve got!
