  • I just finished watching the game today, and he just scored a goal. That means the stats need updating.
  • The lead could use more of his college career and his career with the Flyers so far.  Done
  • Does Dave have any profession?   Done
    • Business owner
  • Link Ottawa in the lead.  Done
  • Change "NCAA Division 1" to NCAA Division I.  Done
  • Link University of New Hampshire.  Done
  • "6-1, 160 pounds" Conversions needed.
  • "first-round" Don't think the hyphen is needed.  Done
  • Ref 28 doesn't explicitly say Farabee was on the team.  Done
  • On the awards table, the third column's first cell needs some type of label.  Done
  • If you can, ref 20 should be replaced with a better source.  Done

That should be it. Nova Crystallis (Talk) 05:31, 14 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Nova Crystallis, thanks for the review (didn't realize you're a Philly fan). I will work on these changes ASAP and add something about the 2021 season. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 01:21, 16 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • article promoted to good article on Jan. 16 - check.
  • Way long enough at 9000 characters - check.
  • Citations exist, are plentiful, and pass spot-check. Hook is directly cited. Check.
  • No disputes, BLP-compliant. Check.
  • No close paraphrasing, via the Earwig tool. I made one wee change. Check.
  • Neutral. Check.
  • Hook looks properly formatted and appropriate length to me. The main hook was hook-y enough to catch my attention. (Really, they let people born in the 2000s into pro sports now? They didn't in my day! Get off my lawn!) I strongly prefer the main hook to alt-2, which is just a more-specific version of the main hook. That said, others may prefer the second hook, which is also cited and clearly written. I'd go with the first 'cause it's more general-interest, but YMMV.
  • I don't see a QPQ review. I might be missing something - I'll ask the nominator on their talk page. Once that's done, this is good to go!Moishe Rosenbaum (talk) 02:06, 17 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
