379:"Another bright spot for the team during this time was defenceman Robyn Regehr, who became the youngest nominee ever for the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy, which recognizes perseverance, sportsmanship and dedication to hockey, in his rookie year, despite suffering two broken legs in a car accident the previous summer" --: --> 98:
Great article, but there are a few rather dramatic statements that aren't strictly supported, like "the deal is widely believed to have been the beginning of the Flames' long decline" and "The Flames stunned the hockey world". I'm not necessarily saying the prose should be watered down, but perhaps a

There appears to be quite a number of statements regarding scorelines (or series scores) but it's not immediately obvious where a reference/citation for those are. I think this verfiability aspect is important. I don't doubt the truth is presented by the editors here, but the lay reader should be

able to know what he/she is reading is verifiable. I can cite examples if you want but I think it's fairly clear. In the long term, erring on the side of too many inline citations would avoid silly problems like FA review by anal-rententive editors.

Thanks SandyGeorgia that you took the time to comment, I always highly appreciate your feedback. But, what's an unresolved external link?? I thought it was a synonym for dead links, but I checked and there are no dead links.
241:
I've fixed the awkward dot. About the scores, I think all of them are en dashes. Should they be hyphens; I was under the impression that scores should use endashes. I will give the references more time.
82:. After spending the last day or so tightening up the references and performing one final copyedit, I believe this article is ready for Featured status. Looking forward to all feedback. 309: 513: 492: 454: 537: 479: 389: 288: 198: 148: 108: 364: 347: 330: 578: 554: 427: 415: 276: 236: 184: 172: 136: 153:
From my limited experience in FAC, just changing both statements isn't usually enough. You've gotta comb through the article for all or almost of such things.
261: 396:
Just to clarify, do you feel that more citations are needed for the scores? As for the second one, splitting it into two sentences might help. I'll fix it.
223:
Check the reference list carefully; spot check revealed, for example, missing author's name at ref. 33. Ref 29 doesn't have the site owner listed.

Over the past year or so, I've slowly re-written and cited this article, looking to bring it up to a similar standard of another ice hockey FA,
75: 603: 40: 420:
Checked all scores and season records. They should all be cited now. Also reworked the statement regarding Regehr a little more.
30: 17: 79: 498: 64: 266:
Checked references, will double check in the morning. Will double check the dashes as well once I have a chance.
220:
Check the hyphens in scores, such as 26-0 (26–0). Double hyphens in the table at the bottom better as en dashes.
300:
Good article, another quality piece by Resolute. Good to see another ice hockey article going for FA status.

156: 120: 177:
Yeah, I caught most of it before, but did another pass-over and reworded a few more minor usage issues.
281:
Doublechecked references, they should be consistent now. Ensured all scores and records are endashes.

There were three "unresponsive" links, but the webpages looked perfectly fine to me.
502: 443: 360: 343: 326: 114: 71: 501:; if you've checked them all, that's good (the tool seems to time out sometimes). 569: 528: 470: 406: 252: 231: 163: 127: 551: 381: 57: 355:
Very detailed, well cited. This one deserves a promotion to featured status.--

Well, I haven't pored over every sentence, but it certainly looks good!
