Revision as of 20:11, November 3, 2008
I'm new here and still learning how to work a wiki. I have a couple of suggestions for this page that I think would help.
First, I think this should be renamed Ice Hockey and have hockey redirect to that. Most people think of ice hockey when they type in hockey.
Second, I don't think the street hockey league should be included in this article. I question if it is a "top league," espescially since it has only been around for a year. Plus, it is very localized. I'm not sure if it belongs in an encyclopedia.
Plus, thanks to AliceBG for correcting my error (I need to proofread better). Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. --JasterMereel 02:30, 15 June 2008 (EDT)
Race and sport
I was thinking about Obama and Tiger Woods lately. With pro golf finally dropping the color barrier, is ice hockey the last major sport with no black players? --Ed Poor Talk 14:26, 3 November 2008 (EST)
- No, there are black players, and there have been for a long time. Eg, Grier on the San Jose Sharks. RSchlafly 14:37, 3 November 2008 (EST)
