GA review (see here for criteria)

The bolded things need attention.

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
All Good
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
Well referenced, and no synthesis
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
Well written, and easy to understand. even for a hockey n00b
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
yep
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
No edit wars
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Hmmm... My first two GA nominations have little to no pictures. :/

I like pretty pictures, so can you find a team photo or something like that?

Overall:
Pass/Fail:
Just a nitpicky thing, the "Personal life" seems a little small. can you expand on it?

I expanded the personal life section, as for the pictures I searched through Flickr and emailed a couple of users one didn't want to change the licensing the other one, who had a picture of the team that looked to be a photo taken by a no-professional (which makes me think they might hold the copy rights), but they have not responded and I doubt they will at this point. I don't know where else to find free images and I think that attempting to add it under fair use would fail Contextual significance. "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding."--Mo Rock...Monstrous (talk) 04:19, 19 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll pass this one.
