Win preseason tickets

(EDIT: Thanks for playing, everyone. I got four correct answers in very short order. The only one that tripped a couple people up was that the Kings won the Smythe Division in 1990-91, NOT 1992-93. That season, they finished third before the great playoff run.)

Thanks to a gracious donor, I have four pair of tickets available to the Sept. 30 preseason game between the Kings and Ducks at Staples Center. They’re good tickets, in the 200 level, $62 face value. I want to give them to readers and I thought the fairest way would be to have people answer trivia questions. If you’re interested, and you know you’ll use the tickets, e-mail me — rich.hammond@dailynews.com — with the answers to the questions below, as well as your name and address (it won’t be used for any advertising purposes or anything like that). The first four correct entries will win two tickets each. If I don’t get four fully correct entries by Monday morning, I’ll take the ones that get the most correct. Good luck!
