Somethings always bothered me

edit

It seems the claims that if people extrapolated Malone's 44 goals to a modern nhl season, his feat would have surpassed Gretzky. Now granted using this interpretation of calculating goals to games played would yeild such an interpretation. But this should have a reference. Because just as easily one could say he played 60 minutes in each of those games, and a more accurate comparison would be he played a maximum of 1200 minutes, and equating to modern statistics hed have 44 goals in 60 games in today's Nhl, assuming that he would play 20 minutes a game - all original research, I know but that is my issue. The current text is worded that way anyway. I think there must be some references out there that provide a fair view of interpreting older statistics so that they have meaning to today's hockey reader. I believe that would be helpful for this and other old time hockey player profiles 67.193.135.64 (talk) 22:13, 21 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

  • There should not be two headings titled "References". Recommend naming the second one "Bibliography".
  • When possible, it's helpful to have a link to the Google Books entry for book references
  • Rather than saying "See Diamond 2002, p. 610", include a normal endnote citation there instead

General comments

  • No stability concerns, and as the subject has been dead for over 50 years, there are unlikely to be
  • Photos are either public domain or CC and are relevant to the article
  • Per MOS:CAPTION, unless a caption is a full sentence, there should not be a period at the end of it
