Not a q.

It possibly could be Steve Yzerman. I said member and not player so that might not rule out Yzerman although that would probably be too obvious.

Is it a player who has 20 or more points so far this season?

Well it isn't the keeper (Swedish).

Holdem,

Should we ask if it's even a player?

We could do 14 or more points and try for the lock. Or go by position.

Maybe we can get Steve to clarify:

Would you have counted coaches/front office as a member of the team?

not a q, ldo

By my count there are 16 players with less than 20 points (including 2 goalies) who have played a game for the Lightning this season and were born in North America.

8 forwards/6 defensemen/2 goalies

Probably not the backup goalies right?

I really don't know the lightning well enough to know what players would be most likely.

I somehow feel like it isn't a player but meh.

Okay now I really think that it probably isn't even a player and we maybe don't even need to ask.

A yes for a list of 4 gives us a lock. So I think we should put together our 4 most likely candidates and go from there.

Thoughts?

Yzerman - GM
Brewer - player
Malone - player
Pouliot - player

would be the list I'd go with

Okay I think yours may be better. If it's not a player it's probably Yzerman.

Don't think it does.

Edit: Unless POE is fine and you don't need to ask the final Q, actually I don't know what the standard is. Probably Yzerman tho

I mean I think it's Yzerman but hang on a second. I think Steve is from Saskatchewan so I'll check to see if there are any players from there.

We have 3 more after the next q right? We can binary search a list of 4 with 3 questions.

Aulie actually seems to play whereas mikkelson doesn't so maybe more likely him?

I don't know the lightning too well.

I think any reasonable list of 4 that has Yzerman on it is probably a good guess at this point. I'll let you shoot.
