Metro Team History
Mr.Mighton, have you been able to find the individual scoring leaders for the years that you have found? I'd be really interested in those if you come across them. NCAA Watcher


 * I am sad to say no... the Toronto Sun only listed the final standings and scores... they don't get very indepth... sorry man. But at least we are getting the standings! the King City/North York thing was interesting!  DMighton 19:03, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Re: 88-89 standings, I know St.Mike's finished with one more victory, so won their last game. If you know the team they played, you can give them a loss.


 * But we need a score too... otherwise the stats don't add properly. DMighton 19:01, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

GMHL
I don't understand why you choose not to include the sanctions imposed by other leagues on the GMHL. It is a matter of fact. Your are not being impartial, with regards to reporting or recording all the information! Thanks for the post. My e-mail is canadianhockeynews@gmail.com. I mistyped it originally.

Fincups renaming
Hello Devan. Long time no see. I hope all is good in wikiland. I am not here as much in the summer. I could also you a comment at Talk:Fincups (OHL). I'm still working on the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds even after three months. What's new for you? Flibirigit 16:29, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your help. I'll continue adding stuff but I don't know all that much about BC hockey - I just thought there was a need to get that stuff added. I am willing to research hockey though. SportingFlyer 07:12, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Junior 'A' Affiliations
Have you had a chance to follow up on WHL or QMJHL affiliations? I should have some time this week to do some editing work. Flibirigit 14:23, 14 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I have put this on my to do list for this Saturday. Check back with me on Sunday. Flibirigit 03:34, 1 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Affiliates for the OHL have been added to all 20 teams. I will let you take care of the QMJHL, and find out about the WHL. Flibirigit 00:30, 3 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I am contemplating changing the template to an infobox format, such that some fields are optional. Such as "division" for the QMJHL, and "affiliates" for teams where the information is unknown. Flibirigit 00:30, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
 * I have changed to the infobox format with optional fields. I haven't figured out how to change the background colours to match the previous template, but the functionality is there. Flibirigit 03:32, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

KIJHL
I do plan on continuing but I've got this thing called a life right now... I'll get to it when I can. Thanks! SportingFlyer 01:53, 1 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I was just asking... simmer. DMighton 02:43, 1 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Hey, I finished the Spokane Braves - I don't have time right now to do the season by season (especially because they have 34 seasons to sort through). I'll probably do all the team pages and then update their histories at a later date... I'll also be watching Revelstoke and other pages for wierd updates. Again I am really busy right now - sorry if I came off as caustic. However, when I'm done, if you would like me to take another league & update it similarly let me know. SportingFlyer 02:15, 2 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I've been busy so new pages haven't been made as fast as I'd like them to but I'll continue to moderate the KIJHL pages. SportingFlyer 22:09, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Swift Current Broncos
I tend to agree with you on creating a separate article on the SJHL Broncos vs the WHL Broncos. They were two different teams. Nice work with the stats, btw. I was hoping to continue adding and updating the stats pages for all Dub teams, but work committments are seriously slowing me down. Resolute 03:55, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

OLA Lacrosse
Sure, I'll hold off on it. Feel free to untag the team articles as well. I did a google search and found only wikipedia mirror sites which is never a good sign. I didn't tag it for deletion because it seemed to be well edited and linked in to the lacrosse project. Hopefully you can put some references up soon. Best, Irongargoyle 03:39, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

Gloucester Griffins
It's my understanding that this is not a professional box lacrosse league team. It therefore seems to me that it is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in this encyclopedia. It wasn't my intent to move to a process like AfD immediately, but hostility to inclusion of something like the notability template makes it difficult to have a discussion about the notability of the organization. How long do you believe it will take to address that concern? Erechtheus 05:13, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

How does the site listed above look now. I worked on it. John R G 17:51, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

World Hockey Association (proposed)
How does the site listed above look. I have been thinking of removing the (proposed) part of the title because it does not look correct but I do not know what to replace it with. Do you have any suggestions. John R G 18:38, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

I like what you did it looks great. Im not sure how to do.


 * ex: Hockey Canada => Hockey Manitoba => Manitoba Major Junior Hockey League


 * or


 * ex: Hockey Canada => Canadian Junior A Hockey League => Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League => Weyburn Red Wings

So I will let you do it. How about we do this to the proposed part make it World Hockey Association (WHA). Just an idea. John R G 18:15, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Legionnaires vs. Legionaires
Hi, the bot seems to be changing the odd sports team called the "Legionaires" to the "Legionnaires". I know that "Legionnaires" is the proper English spelling... but for some reason some Canadian teams spell it "Legionaires"... Is there anyway we can avoid these changes? DMighton 09:40, 9 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Absolutely. I'll special-case the capitalized version of the word and leave that unmodified. Do you think that'll fix it? Cheers, CmdrObot 19:45, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Hey just wanted to say thanks a lot for devoting a LOT of time to Ontario junior hockey articles! I am going to expand the stub Frontenac Flyers that you've started. Mike (T C) 12:00, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Oh I defently can get my hands on a ton of stats and history. My best freind is the GM of the team, I was brought in as the teams trainer this year b/c of my medical background, my girlfreinds dad used to coach the team and won a championship, and my other best freinds dad was a trainer for the team for eons. =) Mike (T C) [[Image:Star_of_life2.png|20px]] 21:21, 11 October 2006 (UTC)

Ice Hockey Wikia
Hey i saw that you created an ice hockey wikia and have also seen that you haven't been doing it recently. Are you still interested in trying to get it moving? Is there any rules on copying Wikipedia articles onto the Wikia site (just as a basis to start off with)? These are more or less just inquiring questions about it. Croat Canuck  Go Leafs Go  04:37, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

That is some nice collaborative effort there. You edit the SSJBHL --> PJHL change while I move it. Nice timing. ;) Resolute 03:52, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Infoboxes for the Thunder Bay Northern Hawks and other teams
Instead of creating a table for each of the teams you are editing, you should consider either using an existing infobox template or creating a new one. I can help with the template stuff if you wish. -- ArglebargleIV 16:01, 26 October 2006 (UTC)


 * (Response) : I've had some experience with conditionals in templates, which could take care of most if not all of those problems. If you can give me a few examples of "problem" team articles, or ones that it's been difficult to fit possible standards to, I can take a shot at creating a composite conditional template over the next day or so that could be useful for all the articles.  But don't let that stop you from adding your infoboxes, if what I had in mind works, they can be retrofitted.  -- ArglebargleIV 16:11, 26 October 2006 (UTC)


 * (Response) OK, thanks, I'll take a look and get back to you. -- ArglebargleIV 16:53, 26 October 2006 (UTC)


 * If I may interject to save you both some work, Template:CHL team already has the necessary fields, and optional parameters. It could be tweaked if you need anything else. Flibirigit 17:13, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Take a look at User:ArglebargleIV/testing team template. I used your examples in there, let me know what you think. -- ArglebargleIV 18:09, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

 * I have moved the discussion of this template from User talk:Flibirigit to Template talk:Hockey team, so that others may join in. Flibirigit 17:19, 28 October 2006


 * There are new changes to Template:Hockey team. The logo is now optional, and you can list the franchise identities in the box now. See the Erie Otters example at User:ArglebargleIV/testing team template. Flibirigit 23:16, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

CJHL
Yeah, it was pretty big news here in town. I am not sure if anything happened on the ice during the actual game, but the arena they were playing in uses one hallway for both teams to exit the ice. Apparently the teams were exiting the arena at the same time and something sparked a melee between both teams. Fans/parents got involved, and during the brawl, someone "wearing skates" kicked the linesman in the head, knocking him out. Both teams are suspended indefintely pending investigation by both the league and police. I added a little blurb on the Calgary Junior Hockey League article. Resolute 17:18, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

Ice Hockey Wiki
Hey there! I stumbled across the Ice Hockey Wikia and thought it was one huge idea - in fact, I found it because I was going to request wikia a ice hockey wiki! It seems dead, will it be revived? I'd be very interested in contributing, in fact I already started a few NHL team stubs, just for the hell of killing red links - there'll be plenty of time to make something better later.

Anyway, the project really interests me, I'm not much into minor hockey (except for the CHL), I'm more into NHL and European leagues. It might be quite feasible to get some interest in the thing, it just needs to be advertised in the right places and to grow so it gets more often seen on google and so on. Well, so I think... Yannzgob 07:26, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

Quebec Junior Hockey
Well, I don't have extensive knowledge on the matter, my areas of "expertise" if I can say are rather NHL and Europe/Asia/International hockey. But well, I do know some things, I certainly am in the province and can quite possibly find what you look for - feel free to ask, I'll do my very best to find it. Yannzgob 23:15, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
 * I see. That requires some researching but I think I can help you with that. I took a sneak-peek at http://www.lhjaaaq.qc.ca/ you have league standings, scorer lists and goalie stats from season 2001-02 to today; same for playoffs stats (the whole website is also available in English). Don't know whether you already found it or not, but it's a beginning. For older stats, maybe sending an email at info@lhjaaaq.qc.ca kindly asking for those stats might work? They must keep archives and I can't see why they'd refuse to share them, especially since it's for such a good reason as wikipedia. I can ask them for you if you want.


 * Info on this season in the Midget AAA league is not hard to find, if you lack some, I can easily provide it; older (like, last season and further back) needs researching. By the way, you might want to look at this: http://www.tournoimidgetstleonard.qc.ca/index_ang.html It's a midget tournament held in St-Leonard. It started yesterday and counts 92 top teams from various midget leagues (categories are AAA, AA, A, BB and CC). They say it's an international tournament, but at first glance, it just looks like only Quebec and Ontario teams are registered. Maybe they've had foreign teams joining in previous editions, but there doesn't seem to be any this year. If the site is not fully bilingual, I can translate stuff.


 * For the other leagues, I can't really tell much right now. I really need to research on that, as I usually don't pay much attention to junior leagues below the CHL. I doubt I'll have much time this week, having a couple of exams to prepare and some poorly timed work shifts, but as soon as I can, I'll get back to it. By the way, what's the "lowest" level you're interested in? I mean, I'm familiar with the Pee-Wee tournament of Jonquiere and know bits about that of Quebec (heck, I can find complete lists of participating teams and even rosters for several editions of the latter held in the 90s, provided I can get back that book I've left at my parents' house in Saguenay) and therefore could provide some info; I'm just not really sure what's the lowest age level of interest to you and worthy of being added on wikipedia (I reckon Pee-Wee is rather young for being a worthy encyclopedia addition... but on the other hand, both tournaments are international).


 * That said, I'm off to bed. Dumb night shifts at work are a real pain in the a**... Hope I've helped a bit for now. Yannzgob 14:30, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Hey there Devan,
 * I took some time to find stuff on Junior Hockey. So far, all I could gather is a complete list of the Junior AA Leagues and teams in the province. Here it goes:

Ligue de Hockey Junior BB Beauce-Frontenac


 * I can't guarantee the league names are 100% accurate, but all teams are correct as of the season 2006-07. Junior A, B and BB will require further researching. You can nevertheless get an idea of how many leagues and teams of each there is by looking here http://persocite.francite.com/SuperJunior/juniorenchiff.html . Hope I've helped a bit.

NHL team season articles
Hey D, I've started a new project to create an article for each individual season for the Flames (and by extension, every NHL team). My concept article is at 2005-06 Calgary Flames season.

Re: WCHL vs. WOJHL
Hey, I've been doing some extensive research on the Southern Ontario Junior A Hockey League. For two seasons, 1968-69 and 1969-70, they were a renegade league called the Western Ontario Junior A Hockey League. I was reading that during at least one of those two seasons the champions of the WOJHL and the WCHL faced off in a National title game. Ever heard of this? If not, could you look into it... the WHL still exists, the SOJHL doesn't... lol. If you have, could you please shed some light? DMighton 22:39, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * It would appear that the WHL doesnt consider this a very important event, as it was never mentioned in the WHL's history articles (which havent been brought back online since whl.ca was redesigned), and the media guide makes no mention of it. The Flin Flon Bombers website makes no mention if it either.  It might have just been something done between the two teams without the involvement of the leagues?

I've been meaning to build articles for some organizations (ie: Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference), but have gotten focussed on my NHL seasons and some general maitenence tasks.  As far as the Mount Royal College Cougars go, the AJHL team and the ACAC team are the same.  The Cougars left the AJHL to rejoin the ACAC. Resolute 23:45, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

Re: CIS hockey
I am actually not certain how to handle university and college teams. Personally, I would start small, and see how the article grows. ie, the Calgary Dinos. That article really needs to be expanded to include all of the althletics the U of C participates in. If it grows large enough to split out an article specifically for hockey, I would do that, and if that split is large enough to warrant a split between mens and womens hockey, split again.

The CCAA isnt very well organized that I can tell. The ACAC's website shows many gaps in time where there was no national tournament. Looks like for collegiate hockey/sports, your best bet is simply to use whatever the provincial governing body has. Resolute 06:48, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

About my comments
Devon, I am so sorry if my comments in my edit summary seemed insulting. I know you've been working like crazy on a lot of the jr hockey stuff, and have done an amazing job. Sadly, the amount of info on some of the junior hockey articles is "lame" but that's because it's hard to find, or there's just never enough time to get them all done adequately. You've done a lot to set up the structure for the leagues, have created tonnes of stubs, and fleshed out a lot of articles too. My comment about "lame" was more an expression of frustration about how much there is still to do. I am sorry. Thanks for letting me know how it came off. I appreciate that you did.

Metropolitan Montreal Junior Hockey League
Have you heard of the defunct Metropolitan Montreal Junior Hockey League? I am researching NHL alumni for the Verdun Maple Leafs, the Laval Saints and the Saint-Jérôme Alouettes. It appears that teams from the MMJHL might have joined with teams from the QJHL in 1969 to form the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. Any thoughts? Flibirigit 03:47, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Western Major Junior Championship
We don't seem to have an article for the Monseigneur Athol Murray Trophy which was the Western Canada Major Junior Championship post 1970... until I do not know when. Any thoughts? DMighton 13:11, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I honestly don't think it was ever awarded. Hockey Canada's history section of their by-laws guide  says that the Athol Murray Trophy was to be awarded to the champions of Western Canada - however since there is only one league in Western Canada, the President's Cup (WHL) seems to have taken precidence. It's companion trophy, the George Richardson Memorial Trophy appears to have no longer been awarded after 1972, suggesting the concept was abandoned when the Memorial Cup tournament went to three teams.  I can't confirm it, but I doubt the trophy was ever actually awarded.  Its concept might make a decent mention on the Hockey Canada article in a section regarding the realignment of junior hockey in 1970 though. Resolute 16:32, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Also, in 1970, the WCHL was only in the Prairies. Perhaps the CAHA had anticipated that a fourth major-junior league would appear in BC.  That plan would have been scuttled when the WCHL expanded to Vancouver and Victoria in 1971. Resolute 17:04, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I don't think it would hurt to mention it... yeah... Major Junior would have made sense with a BC league back then.  DMighton 23:14, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

1970-71
Hey, I just spent a couple of hours at the library last night, looking at the OSST's lead up to and the start of the 1970-71 hockey season. The Central Junior B league was comprised of Owen Sound, Collingwood, Waterloo, the Kitchener Ranger B's (apparently still known as the Greenshirts the year before -- I'll check to make sure) and the Preston Raiders. They played a home-and-away interlocking schedule with the teams of the Western league -- Strathroy Rockets, Sarnia Bees, Stratford Warriors, St. Marys Lincolns and London Squires. The recap of the previous season was particularly interesting because it said Preston had been an expansion team the year before and also that the Guelph CMC's had lost in the league final to Collingwood, which was then beaten by Stratford in the OHA quarters. So it seems that Guelph was a Central league club in 69-70.

Other happenings in the fall of 1970 -- the local Junior C loop was going by the "Central" name and, near as I can tell, had five teams. Hanover was already being called the Barons. The other teams were the Kitchener Greenshirts, Mildmay-Teeswater Otters, New Hamburg Hahns and Milverton (nickname n/a at this point). And the OHA Intermediate C league started this year too.

I also have Durham T-Cat career scoring info (up to date as of the end of 2005-06) if you want it. JonJax 14:22, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Stratford OHA team names
What do you know about names of OHA hockey teams from Stratford, Ontario? I wrote most the the articles for the Stratford Midgets and the Stratford Kroehlers, but I'm sure how the history of this Stratford Kist or Stratford Canadians fits into the grand scheme. Flibirigit 06:27, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

The Soo Legion was a AAA Midget team during the 80s and 90s and was changed to the current-day Soo North Stars somewhere around 1996 I believe. To the best of my knowledge, Soo Legion was never Junior team, but I may be wrong. I can look into that. Measly pawn 03:19, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Newmarket Redmen
In the book, The Memorial Cup Canada's National Junior Hockey Championship, authors Richard M. Lapp and Alec Macaulay mention on page 55, that the Newmarket Redmen became the Copper Cliff Redmen. Do you have other information? Flibirigit 23:15, 18 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Well... it is possible... but... Copper Cliff is a suburb of Sudbury... what I do know is that prior to the 1971 realignment the Newmarket Redmen played in the Mid-Ontario Junior B Hockey League. In the 70s they moved to the Central Junior B Hockey League... and in 1972 they were renamed.
 * Is it possible that they were a different team from the Memorial Cup champion team.... but it is possible they are not. I am currently in the middle of a long... long... search for old Junior B standings...  I have the Central back to 1979... Metro to 1988 and am currently reseaching... the WOHL back to 1974.... the Old Western I am just starting (1956-1968)... Mid-Western 1978-present, Golden Horseshoe 1977-present... EOJBHL 1999-present... TBJBHL 1999-Present.... and I will eventually move on to the Mid-Ontario (1960s and 70s) and Big 10 (1930s-1956).  There is no way for me to tell until I have more of the old standings... but I was looking at the Newmarket, Ontario article and saw that it said the Redmen dated back to the 1920s... so I assumed, maybe wrongly, that they were the same team...  it is possible that the Redmen is just a tradition serial team name... I will look further into it.  DMighton 00:06, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

I think everyone agrees the semi-pro team did exist. But there is also the issue of whether its important enough to warrant its own article.

 * John, I see what you are doing... and it is interesting... it is just that on league pages it is better just as a list.... too many tables can increase the loading time of a page ridiculously for slower users... also... too many tables creates overkill in my opinion... I like to just use a table for the logo/info box and standings... past that it kinda bugs me.... I prefer lists when it comes to past champions... tables are good for leading scorers and goalies though... DMighton 03:19, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Re: Succession Boxes
Hey...Sorry about not dropping you a line there. My mistake, just was being a tad "bold" as they say here. Anyhow, the reason I edited it was for simplicity. I'm one of those random wikipedians who just goes about trying to make things look cleaner, and that's what I do with Project Ice Hockey (as you can see from any of my edits). If you look at the succession boxes for Stanley Cup winners (example below), they simply state the previous team to win it, the year in which the articled team won it, and the team who next won it. I personally see no need to link to the actual previous and future TOURNAMENT. Of course, a link to the tounament is needed for the articled team (to show which year they won), but as with almost any succession box, especially in sports, there isn't a need for the year to be displayed for the teams that are "sandwiching" the articled team

Example:

compared to what I did...

I personally think that what I did looks a lot nicer, but I do agree that I was wrong not to discus first. Anyhow, let me know what you think, and why you think the tournaments should be included in all three years. - Nurmsook 00:34, 15 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Okie dokie. One more thing though; you have repeat winners being displayed as, for example, 1992 and 1993. What do you think about making it 1992, 1993. Here's an example of what it's like for Stanley Cups compared to what you've done.

Would you agree that a comma should replace "and"? I'll leave this one up to you to decide. - Nurmsook 01:03, 15 May 2007 (UTC)

Now I'm just wondering what to do about the 'Young Nats' team coached by Frost ... Would it be appropriate to add info about that third team to the Toronto Nationals article? I don't think the team was around for very long, but it did spawn at least 3 NHL players (Keefe, Danton, and Ryan Barnes). Also the Bob Goodenow connection, and notoriety of David Frost (sports agent) may all combine to make it all notable enough for its own article, but it would fit quite nicely into the existing article. Then again, if it's a whole different team, maybe that doesn't make sense. What do you think? ColtsScore 04:41, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Any ideas? Nurmsook 06:32, 22 May 2007 (UTC)


 * I went ahead and made a template for BCHL teams, one similar to those of AHL and NHL franchises. It can be found here. Let me know what you think. I like these templates because they state all the most important information, including championship wins, and look a lot "cleaner" and "newer" than just the plain hockey team template. It just seems a lot more vibrant to have these and they have been making AHL and NHL articles a lot better, in my opinion. Anyhow, let me know. BCHL teams definately need an upgraded template, so hopefully we can come to some sort of consensus before initiating them into articles. – Nurmsook 17:48, 23 May 2007 (UTC)
