Overall: Looks good to me. I prefer the ALT0 hook, as it's short and straight to the point, but I would like to see "Canadian ice hockey administrator" added before his name just to make it clear that he wasn't a player or coach. Sounder Bruce 07:24, 14 June 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this. I wonder if you could explain this one line in the lead: Juckes became involved in hockey as newspaper published a team president, Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 21:08, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

I have fixed the typo. It should have read newspaper publisher and team president.Flibirigit (talk) 21:57, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

Thank you. Restoring tick per SounderBruce's review. Yoninah (talk) 22:00, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
