Talk:Kevin Bieksa

message: What, all two of them? This statement adds nothing to the article.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.80.121.187 (talk) 04:57, 4 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: A physical defenceman, Bieksa has increased his scoring totals in each of the full seasons he has played in the NHL.

message: I noticed that someone added the oh-so-publicized Fedor Fedorov story from Bieksa's first year with the Moose. While I always assumed that this story was more exaggerated folklore than anything else, I never though to include it in the article when I was writing it previously. But when I noticed that the editor who has since included it provided a reliable reference with Burke himself recounting the story, I changed my stance and decided to expand it. While the story has received considerable media attention in the past, I'm still not convinced it belongs in this article. Any thoughts? Orlandkurtenbach (talk) 02:28, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I would say to leave it in, 1. because as you say it is quite publicized and has a reliable reference, 2. Burke's reaction to hearing the story is often given as a reason why Bieksa was signed at that stage of his career. When put into that kind of context it becomes kind of an important moment in Bieksa's career. Those are just my thoughts on it.--Mo Rock...Monstrous  (leech44) 00:40, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Fedorov story

message: There's been a bit of back and forth regarding Bieksa's middle name in the last while, particularly because there are verifiable sources stating that his middle name is both Christopher and Francesco. According to the HHOF (aka legendsofhockey.net), his middle name is Christopher. However, according to Canucks.com (confirmed by Kevin Bieksa himself), his middle name is Francesco. Further, when his Bowling Green profile was active, it also listed Francesco as the middle name WayBack link. Hopefully this can clarify this. Knowing that two of the clubs he has played for have listed it as Francesco, it looks like any jokes aside, that is his actual middle name. – Nurmsook! talk... 18:28, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
