Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference? The facts referenced within the article are generally reliable. However, some of the facts from a specific source are not reliable. The article “Canadian Kelly Babstock Invited to USA Hockey Camp for IIHF Worlds” under references is a blog post, therefore, it may have sources that are not reliable and readers will be unsure whether or not the facts were taken from credible sources. The rest of the sources in the article are reliable.

'''2. Check a few citations. Do the links work? Is there any close paraphrasing or plagiarism in the article?''' Most of the citations within the article about Kelly Babstock do work. However, citation number 13 is not active. There is no plagiarism or close paraphrasing within the article, and all references are cited correctly.

3. Is any information out of date, is anything missing that could be added? Most of the information provided about Kelly Babstock is up to date, considering that the references retrieved are relatively recent. All of the references have been retrieved between 2012 and 2018. However, the article only has minimal information on the athlete, including just her playing career, her awards, and honours. Therefore, many things can be added to strengthen the article. Since the information focuses mostly on her playing career, it could include more things regarding her personal life, more specifically, information about her high school career and childhood experiences. Furthermore, it could include information on the position she plays, whether she has played forward during her whole career or if she has played any other positions.

He last played for the Carolina Hurricanes of the National Hockey League.

He is the son of Sandra Nolan and former NHL player and NHL coach Ted Nolan who received the Jack Adams award in 1997. His brother Jordan Nolan plays for the Buffalo Sabres.

By the end of Nolan's three-year OHL career with the Oshawa Generals, he finished with 81 goals and 103 assists, eventually becoming the top scorer during his 3 years of playing.

After the end of Brandon's career and being gone for two years due to a concussion, he attended Durham College and graduated with an advanced diploma in Business Administration and Marketing. Upon completing his studies, he began running a successful business alongside his father and brother. They created 3NOLANS First Nation Hockey School. This hockey camp was a great way to inspire the lives of First Nation adolescence across Canada and to make a hockey skills camp available for the youth. Brandon is also the Vice president of the Ted Nolan Foundation, which has helped change the lives of many Aboriginal youths by sending them to leadership camps.
