Untitled[edit]

this article could really use an update. Moe Mantha, Jr. hasn't been coach of the Windsor Spitfires for a few years now and his 2005 suspension isn't really "recent" Also nothing in here about the actually recent hit on Ben Fanelli from the Kitchener Rangers and Branch's decision to suspend Michael Liambas of the Erie Otters for the rest of the season. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eeelick (talk • contribs) 16:03, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article assessment[edit]

I have rewritten to article, to make it look as encyclopedic as I could. I removed the list of suspensions handed out, as I don't think that's suitable for a biography. I think we should expand more on initiatives undertaken while in charge of the OHL and CHL. Any suggestions or ideas? Flibirigit (talk) 06:18, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'm also not sure how to handle the 'disciplinarian' reputation. It should be mentioned somehow. Flibirigit (talk) 06:26, 20 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Move discussion in progress[edit]
