The 'Conn Smythe Trophy winners' quiz

Created on June 15, 2026 | Total tries: 177 | Average Score: 38.9 out of 61 (64%) | Quiz FAQ

If Carolina Hurricanes captain Jordan Staal’s first Stanley Cup title was a person, it would probably have just graduated high school.

An NHL-record 17 years after winning his first Stanley Cup Final, Staal scored six goals in six games against the Vegas Golden Knights to win the Conn Smythe Trophy and deliver the Hurricanes their second championship in franchise history.

Staal has stuck with the Hurricanes through some dark times in his 14 years in Raleigh, something he took pride in after the win.

“Some guys just jump ship. I believe in this organization. I believe in everyone in it. It’s just such an amazing feeling to build something like that,” he said.

Which brings us to today’s quiz. At 37 years old, Staal became the oldest player ever to win the Conn Smythe Trophy for MVP of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. With that being said, how many of the Conn Smythe Trophy winners can you name in six minutes?

Good luck!
