Passing it. Here are a few nitpicks:

• "pee-wee tournament" - is it jargon, or teenage slang, or something totally different? Perhaps reword or link it.

  It is the name of an age level of minor hockey, which I have now linked to

• "history and physical education teacher" - highschool, college, university?

  Sources don't say. Only that he thought of quitting hockey to become a teacher.

• I am not sure if you need to put a comma after "however" in ", however the Detroit Red Wings". I think there should be a semicolon ahead this word and a comma after it.

  Reworded slightly

• " when they completed one of the biggest trades in league history to that time on March 3, 1968.[26]" - do you know the sum?

  It was a six-player trade, however quantifying these deals is always tough, as the "size" of a trade is often not just the number of players, but the quality of them too. I've noted it was a six player trade, regardless.

• "He also suffered torn chest muscles" - I added "from", correct me if I am wrong--Tomcat (7) 12:30, 24 November 2012 (UTC)

  That should be fine. Thanks for the review, I appreciate it! Resolute 14:56, 24 November 2012 (UTC)
