Talk:John Brophy (ice hockey)

Talk:Ice hockey at the 1964 Winter Olympics

message: This tournament was a straight round robin, tsn.ca's explanation that the rule was supposed to be goal difference in the medal round is non-sensical.  I cannot find anything official that states precisely what the rule was supposed to be, only that it was new, (the 1963 rule would still have put TCH ahead of CAN) and the only sourced rule that I have found that would have given Canada the bronze is goal differential amongst tied teams.18abruce (talk) 15:43, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Henrik Sedin

message: This article's been recently changed to international date formatting.  I reverted the change a couple times, but the editor was very convinced that this was the proper format for the article and mentioned that this has been the convention for some time.  As far as I understand his reasoning, it is because Henrik was born in Sweden, which I think seems reasonable and logical, but I simply just find it strange as there is no precedent for it in any other internationally-born NHL player I have encountered on Wikipedia.  My understanding of WP:Date is that if the topic of the article has strong ties to an English-speaking country, then the date formatting should abide by that.  If applied to Henrik, I think the fact he plays in Canada and the NHL (a North American league) takes priority over his Swedish heritage, because Sweden is not the English-speaking country here.  Anybody else have thoughts?  Orlandkurtenbach (talk) 23:25, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Well we do speak English in Sweden too. Interesting discussion you two had on your talk page, personally I prefer the US date format, both in English speech and writing, but the international date format is most common in Sweden so that's what I would use in the article, since I believe the national ties for the Sedins are with Sweden and not Canada. Besides, Canada uses the international date format too, right? —Krm500 (Communicate!) 02:29, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I would say that most of Canada uses the US standard (month day) over the international standard (day month). But really, I don't think anyone would really be confused with either. Kaiser matias (talk) 02:39, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Exactly, and as I said I'm certainly not the one to use the international standard myself (except for the 2010-05-09 format). IMO WP:RETAIN applies perfectly in this situation. —Krm500 (Communicate!) 03:49, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Henrik may have National ties to Sweden, but isn't he employed in Canada and earns a living in Canadian or US dollars? I doubt the date on his paycheck is in the international standard because he's Swedish. Either way there should be a Wikipedia-wide consensus for birth dates etc. so that arguments like this don't take up time and space. --66.252.146.130 (talk) 15:21, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Chris Phillips

message: I don't see the point in calling the own-goal cup clinching.  I am also not interested in edit warring over it, so I open the field to anyone interested to comment. Thanks!--Xnuala (talk)(Review) 00:13, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's been explained that in hockey the team that scores one more goal than the opponent wins. Therefore, it doesn't matter what the final score is, 6-2, 10-2, or 20-2. The 3rd goal by Anaheim was the game- and Cup-winning goal, because Ottawa managed to score only two goals themselves. Had Ottawa scored 3 goals, the game-winning goal would've been the 4th goal scored by Anaheim.Jmj713 17:59, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I object to the moving article from correct name Patrik Eliáš, to the incorect form Patrick Elias.

I do not want to start edit war so I want change it back now, but I do not promisse I will not do it later if nobody proves me that there is a clear consensus against using national alphabets.

The Vezina Trophy went to the goalie or the goalies on the team with the fewest goals allowed.
