Connie Dion

edit

5x expanded by Canadian Paul (talk). Self nominated at 02:48, 16 November 2014 (UTC).

  • The article was newly expanded within the last week; fantastic read, good inline citations, complies with policy. I would remove the red links as I don't know when we would see those articles and they are a bit of an eyesore, but I don't feel too strongly about this. The only thing I take issue with is the hook... what does "biggest shutout" mean? Does that mean they held the opposing side goalless for the longest period of time? Also the guy was only 5'4"?? Maybe that would be an interesting hook... Colipon+(Talk) 17:26, 19 November 2014 (UTC)
  • A slight rewrite of the original hook:Georgejdorner (talk) 16:45, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
  • ALT1: ... that Connie Dion was the winning goalie during the most lopsided shutout in NHL history?
    • That is a great suggestion; the article should be fixed as well. Colipon+(Talk) 17:12, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
