I should qualify this ... looks like neither stat was kept for old-time players, so think late 70s on

[Dr. Lecter]

+/- - Niklas Lidstrom

Shots - Jari Kurri

I think he's trying to be a tricksy hobbit, so I'm saying both are the same. I'm going with Ray Borque for both.

I will say Al MacInnis.

i'm pretty sure bourque is right for shots on goal, but i'm not sure on the +/-

I love this trivia stuff.

I'm about 95% sure that Larry Robinson leads in +/-.

I'm not sure about shots though. I want to say Phil Esposito, but I don't know if they kept track of shots at the beginning of his career. So I'll agree with BMN and Crisis and go with Ray Bourque for shots.

So I'll agree with BMN and Crisis and go with Ray Bourque for shots.My figuring for Borque was that he was a defenseman and therefore had a ton of ice time, which increased the likelihood for both answers. Plus, he was pretty damn good and offensively minded.

You got the double!

It's Larry Robinson for +/- and Ray Bourque for shots.
