The good old carney games

Since it's carnival day today over at red and black hockey, I thought I'd offer some carnival games of my own. You know that fellow who will guess your weight or age? Well, whatever he's called, I'm going to be like him for a post.

Drag your cursor over the blank space to the right of the questions to see the answers.

Who is heaviest team in the NHL? Florida Panthers (212.9 pounds)
The lightest team? Nashville Predators (195.7 pounds)

The tallest team? Washington Capitals (6-foot-2.2)
The shortest team? Nashville (5-foot-11.7)

And, finally, the oldest? Detroit Red Wings (30.8)
...and youngest team? Ottawa Senators (26.4)

It's funny that, as much as team rosters have changed since 2003-04, there are a few constants that hold true. Nashville is still a small team, Detroit is old and Ottawa young.

OK, now that you've read the above tidbits, here are all the numbers:
