Talk:Goal (ice hockey)

message: I am not familiar with this term, and internet searches seem to only link to this page or direct copies of this page in regards to hockey. It is often referred to in gambling, I believe, which seems unrelated. Thank you for any assistance. This is my fist Talk page edit, so I hope I am using the proper techniques to answer this question.

replies: text: Hello.  I am not familiar with this term either.  So, I did a quick search, and the only non-Wikipedia copy that mentioned it that I could find was this.  I wouldn't consider a quiz a reliable source for information.  So, unless we get someone to speak up to this and find a source, I would say we remove it.  By the way, you used the proper technique to ask a question on the talk page.  And following up on the Hockey WikiProject was also a good move when no one answered here.  -- JamesTeterenko 04:40, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Is "quinella" a widely used term to describe Lemieux's 5 goals, 5 different ways? 

message: I'm having trouble wording this in a non-confusing way, but the game being tied is not needed for a GWG, as is currently implied.  If a team goes up 2-0 and then gives up the next goal, the second goal (not a go-ahead-goal) is considered the GWG.  The GWG is the goal that is 1 higher than the opponents total.  In addition, with the implementation of shootouts, the term game-deciding-goal has been used to refer to the player who scores the "GWG" of a shootout (I don't believe it counts in GWG stats, though).--128.205.153.176 19:12, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Game-winning goal misdefined 

message: According to NHL Rule 3b: 
"The goal posts shall be of approved design and material, extending vertically four feet (4') above the surface of the ice and set six feet (6') apart measured from the inside of the posts. A cross bar of the same material as the goal posts shall extend from the top of one post to the top of the other."
5 hole refers to the puck going between the goalies legs.

Talk:Offside (ice hockey)

message: * Is this true? I didn't know you could get a "two line pass" call at all, in the new NHL rules.  Sounds plausible though, for a pass that crosses both blue lines.  But why would they bother with calling this infraction if the idea was to open the game up? If the receiver is actually offside when the puck crosses the second blue line then the referee will stop play.  This simpler rule would do the most to "open up the game."
An offside pass is technically still an infraction if it crosses both blue lines. But an offside pass from inside your blue line to inside the opponent's blue line also means the receiving player would have to be offside on the play. Fortunately they just call the offside instead. It keeps it simpler. They should have just deleted the offside pass rule rather than modify it. It would have "netted" the same result.
* Where is the off-side pass or two-line passed even mentioned in the current rule book? – Pedantic79 (talk) 21:15, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Shot (ice hockey)

message: It says here:
A player is said to shoot left if he holds his stick with the left hand on the bottom and the right hand on top, and is said to be right shot if he holds the stick with the right hand at the bottom and left hand on top. Most right-handed players (that is, in general, players who write, eat, and throw with their right hand) shoot left and most left-handed players shoot right. This is because the bottom hand delivers most of the power while the top hand is responsible for control and stickhandling.
A player shoots left if he holds his left hand on the bottom, and this is the hand that gives most of the power, but it is the right-handed players that shoot left? As I recall, right-handed people have most of their power in the right hand. Zhelja (talk) 00:42, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  late season 

message: In the current article, it is claimed (with no citation) that pulling the goalie typically occurs between 60 and 90 seconds before the end of the game. I was watching the recent Hurricanes-Islanders game, and the announcers mentioned that Patrick Roy started pulling the goalie earlier than that (2 or even 3 minutes before the end of the game), and more teams started doing it afterwards. From a search, I have found other people claiming similarly that the average time before the end of the game that the goalie is pulled in the NHL has indeed increased, and studies showing that pulling the goalie earlier is optimal. In the game I watched, the Islanders indeed pulled their goalie with about 2 minutes left.
While none of the sources I found probably are up to the standards of Wikipedia, would this be something that should be updated in the article? AWildHannahAppeared (talk) 02:11, 26 April 2024 (UTC)

message: Someone removed the term "Black Canadian" to describe Eddie Martin, including the hyperlink to the well-researched and well-written page on Black Canadians. I undid that and put the Black Canadian term back in. 
Normally I wouldn't point out a person's racial or ethnic background, but in this specific context it is important. By removing the "Black Canadian" reference, the editor helped to erase the history of Black Canadians in the formation of Canadian hockey and spirit, a process that is ongoing in the media today.   — Preceding unsigned comment added by MrEvilGuy (talk • contribs) 23:09, 5 March 2014 (UTC)

* Bobby Hull is credited with the hardest slapshot on record, clocked on one occasion at a speed of 118.3 mph.

Talk:Ranald MacDonald

message: I just started this article, additions and further editing highly appreciated.
The information is mostly based on the first article cited as an external link, as it was the best I could find, but some of it is based off other things I've read. Sources do no agree on the number of samurai selected to study English under MacDonald. My Japanese texbook has an article that claims 12, and I have a tendency to believe that, but I've found more online sources proclaiming 14, so that is the number I used in the article. I also saw 7 mentioned somewhere.--Lord Shitzu 22:31, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)
Wow this page really took off, nice work PHG and others!--Lord Shitzu 14:54, Jun 17, 2005 (UTC)
I get the feeling that this story is being handled with kid gloves, or bowderized, and it's a little obnoxious.  Nothing at all makes sense.  How did he possibly convince the captain to give him a boat to go to shore?  Was there deception involved?  
Then he gets on a warship and leaves Japan 10 months after teaching English.  Was he expelled from the country or was it voluntary?  
Not even the most basic, and I would say, complete essential details of this incident (the defining incident of Macdonald's life) are provided.  Without those details it's more or less impossible to understand the context or why these events happened.  I didn't even know about Macdonald until this last hour.  But I might have to do some research just to try to make this story not sound like someone describing a dream they had, where everything happens for no reason at all.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.173.101.236 (talk) 13:50, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

message: I edited the name of Ranald MacDonald's father, for though all of his sons spelled it MacDonald, Archibald himself spelled his surname McDonald. I can find citations for this, immediately if you like links, but I can find offline reference to it as well, if necessary. I know a bit about this because Samuel MacDonald, Ranald's half-brother, was my great-great-great grandfather, and I was actually just gathering up the research to write an article, at least a stub, on Archibald, when I noticed that someone had reverted my edit. Please do not do this again, as McDonald is in fact the proper spelling. Thanks.
