Find out if you’re a Golden Knights trivia expert with this quiz
Alex Trebek was an avid hockey fan and announced the Ottawa Senators’ pick at the 2020 NHL draft.
The late “Jeopardy!” host closely followed the Toronto Maple Leafs, though that won’t be held against him here.

There’s some for the kids and some for the hardcore fans. Don’t worry, though. You don’t have to phrase your answer in the form of a question.
