The article was new enough and long enough at the time of the nomination. I did not find any close paraphrasing. A QPQ has been done and is complete. Both hooks are cited inline and verified. The first hook is a "first" hook, but given that the NHL itself verified it, that meets the exceptional sourcing requirement. The second hook is verified in the link. Although the first hook is cute, I think the second hook is the more catchy of the two and also the quirkiest, so my preference is for ALT1.
