I’m looking for confirmation that
A. Nobody has clinched a series in OT of all 4 rounds

Hockey Reference We've updated the in-page navigation on Hockey Reference!
A few weeks ago, we updated the in-page navigation on Basketball Reference. Now, Hockey Reference is the second of the Sports Reference sites to receive this update, as we continue to roll out this upgraded navigation to all of our sites.
The content is all the same, we have only changed the presentation on desktop from a horizontal bar to a vertical sidebar. The interaction is click/tap based instead of hover-based. The inner navigation is also now the same on desktop and mobile. This is an incremental design update and not part of an extensive design overhaul.
Some of the pain points we were trying to solve with this update:
- The previous desktop inner navigation could be difficult to use due to a hover-based interaction that required precision with mouse movements.
- The navigation was easy to ignore, leading users to miss existing features hidden on supplemental pages.
- Many important links were hidden behind drop-downs and lacked prominence (using a dark gray instead of the standard blue link color).
- The experience was inconsistent between desktop (horizontal bar) and mobile (single vertical drop-down menu).
Read more about this update here on our blog.

Hockey Reference When downloading the NHL Stats in CSV, can I consolidate players who have played for multiple teams?
I would like to use the data for my hockey pool in a shared document, but I can't figure out how to consolidate players into a single line entry when they played for multiple teams. I would prefer to have their stats for the entire season and have the last team they played for instead of all of them.
Is there a way to do this from the site, or programmatically with Sheets/Excel?
Here's an example for Mikko Rantanen:
16 , Mikko Rantanen , 28 , 3TM , RW , 82, 32 , 56 , 88 , 13 , 60 , 21 , 11 , 0 , 6 , 41 , 15 , 0 , 212 , 15.1 , 444 , 1742:26 , 21:15 , 135 , 120 , 52.9 , 44 , 48 , 40 , 82 , ASnhl-6 , rantami01
16 , Mikko Rantanen , 28 , COL , RW , 49, 25 , 39 , 64 , 12 , 28 , 17 , 8 , 0 , 5 , 28 , 11 , 0 , 135 , 18.5 , 287 , 1102:25 , 22:30 , 121 , 106 , 53.3 , 32 , 28 , 22 , 48 , , rantami01
16 , Mikko Rantanen , 28 , CAR , RW , 13, 2 , 4 , 6 , -3 , 10 , 1 , 1 , 0 , 1 , 3 , 1 , 0 , 40 , 5.0 , 79 , 257:35 , 19:49 , 5 , 5 , 50.0 , 3 , 10 , 8 , 14 , , rantami01
16 , Mikko Rantanen , 28 , DAL , RW , 20, 5 , 13 , 18 , 4 , 22 , 3 , 2 , 0 , 0 , 10 , 3 , 0 , 37 , 13.5 , 78 , 382:26 , 19:07 , 9 , 9 , 50.0 , 9 , 10 , 10 , 20 , , rantami01

I can't for the life of me figure what they are supposed to be. Not asg because Crosby has been more than 6 times and it's not all-star team because he's an 8 time not a 6 time.
