Alright.....here goes:
HWA
Joel Quenneville - good coach, bad luck
Upset City - Philly Flyers
Steven Stamkos - huge expectations (he's not Crosby)
Detroit Red Wings - broken record player
Sean Avery - not good enough to compete on par....has to resort to his "antics"
WAI
Johan Franzen
Dany Sabourin
Brad Richards

I don't know if this is a trick question or not, but I'm choosing "D" 2.91 GAA, .901 SP. Maybe it was a typo or miscalcualtion, but I've added it up a half-dozen times.
Nonetheless, thanks for the brain churner.
Brett
Yes, it was a typo. Thanks for making the catch. I can't read my own handwriting, it seems.
As always, thanks for playing.
Well nuts, Brett already nailed the Who Am I and Math Quiz. I'll still go for Word Association too.
Joel Quenneville: rejoining the Leafs
Upset City: Philly for pulling off upsets, Montreal for being upset at their team's performance
Steven Stamkos: Number One
Detroit Red Wings: soft (I hate them, and always will until they regain their 1997-era grit)
Sean Avery: A flea on the cat of the NHL
Word Association:
Joel Quenneville: Awesome coach, not out of a job long.
Upset City: anyone who beats the Kitchener Rangers in the Mem Cup this week.
Steven Stamkos: great hockey player, sore loser
Detroit Red Wings: Picture of the modern day NHL.
Sean Avery: great player, stupid player.
