List of Vancouver Canucks draft picks[edit]

Hi Flyer47. I was wondering why you reverted my edit to move List of Vancouver Canucks first and second round draft picks to List of Vancouver Canucks draft picks when the article only has first and second round draft picks. Annoyomous24 (talk) 23:30, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If the page is too long, it will slow down the load of the page. Also, I'm trying to make List of Vancouver Canucks draft picks a featured list. Annoyomous24 (talk) 00:25, 8 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome[edit]

I knew their were other flyers fans on wikipedia. I am currently working on updating the Seasons. I already did the 1967-68 season and 1973-74 season. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jobes23 (talk • contribs) 14:39, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Buffalo Sabres roster[edit]

Why did you remove the diacritics from Jindřichův Hradec? They are part of the town's name. Colonies Chris (talk) 16:02, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reference. It seems to me that the compromise that was reached over diacritics was only about players' names, and the notes you pointed out on the WP:HOCKEY page go beyond the intention of the participants in the discussion, so I've added a note querying this on the talk page. Colonies Chris (talk) 16:56, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The wording of those notes on WP:HOCKEY was too loose and has now been tightened up. The intention was only to eliminate diacritics on player names, not elsewhere. Colonies Chris (talk) 17:15, 10 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Team Rosters[edit]

		The Working Wikipedian's Barnstar
		I don't usually give these silly things out. But you have been doing an amazing job with the roster templates that I think you need to be recognized. It's had to have been an incredible amount of work to convert them over. Keep up the good work! Definitely gladd to have a new editor like you on the project.

LA Kings Roster[edit]

Why did you remove the training camp roster? As of right now that is currently the LA Kings official roster. All of those players will have to be reassigned or released before playing for another team. Ergo, they are all on the Kings roster as of today.

Templates[edit]

Just so you know, I don't disagree with what you were doing. The reason I undid your most recent changes as there was something wrong with them and they were breaking all the team pages. I have a feeling that maybe a bracket was out of place or something, but I couldn't see anything. -Djsasso (talk) 15:19, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just so you know, I reverted his changes and adjusted the templates back to how you had them. -Djsasso (talk) 04:40, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Flyers captain Mike Richards[edit]

Yep, Gagne got passed over for promotion again. GoodDay (talk) 16:06, 18 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Injured Reserve[edit]

Is there a way you can designate players that on the Injured Reserve list oppose to players being out with minor injuries or sickness? Raul17 (talk)

Players' ages[edit]

I have been trying to update the New Jersey Devils' roster but there is some error message concerning the year, month, and date of birth for Patrick Davis, Jat Leach & Barry Tallackson. I even tried imputting dates of players already on the roster with the same error. Raul17 (talk) 01:26, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1974, 1975 Stanley Cup Final[edit]

Hi, I remade the Champions section (roster) on these two articles to match the other Finals articles. That section is used for the names engraved on the Cup, which often is a larger list. We have a section for team rosters like you had done -- see the 2008 Stanley Cup Finals. If you could do rosters like that, that would be great. I left the roster section in the article, commented out. I think Bobby Taylor would not be in the finals roster, was he still on the payroll? I'll watch this page for your reply.
