I dont have a source but I believe Ryan Miller was named the mvp of the entire olympic tournament. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.19.132.75 (talk) 04:37, 19 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If someone can find their final standing in the 1988 olympics that'd be great, they didn't make the medal round, that's all I know, and I'm tired. Maybe I'll find it tommorow, but now my battery is about to run out. Kevin Rector 03:40, Aug 31, 2004 (UTC)

NPOV issue re: Ryan Miller?

[edit]

"The USA is not expected to medal in Torino 2006 unless goalie Ryan Miller is somehow activated and made the starting goaltender."

This seems awfully subjective to me. Sure, I too would rather see Miller on the active roster instead of on the taxi squad, but to say that the US' medal chances hinge on him screams of fanboyism.

Heh, yes yes, I do agree with 24.184.39.98, that is fanboyish Bert (^_^)

Flags

[edit]

Are the flags supposed to be where the players were born or where the players attended college? If the former, than Rick DiPietro's flag needs to be changed to Maine since he was born in Lewiston, Maine. Kntrabssi 01:50, 20 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm...nhlpa, nbcolympics.com list him in Lewiston. Anyone know where the dicrepancy came from? ccwaters 15:30, 20 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Also, the flag next to John Tortorella's name is Florida's. While he is coaching a team in Florida he is from Massachusetts. Go 'Bolts!! Asatruar (talk) 22:26, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Hockeyusafederation.PNG

Image:Hockeyusafederation.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template.

Requested move

[edit]

American men's national hockey teamUnited States men's national hockey team — American is ambiguous. Other articles in Category:National sports teams of the United States begin with USA or United States, not American —Neier 07:22, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article has been renamed from American men's national hockey team to United States men's national hockey team as the result of a move request. --Stemonitis 06:37, 23 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Move request again, with all other countries involved

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.


American men's national hockey teamUnited States national men's hockey team — see below —Neier 05:57, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Most national teams in Category:National sports teams are named such as Country Name national sport team. Three exceptions have been noted – the teams in Category:National ice hockey teams, Category:Women's national ice hockey teams, and Category:National bandy teams, where an adjectival form of the nation is used in place of the proper name. Besides the inconsistency with other sports, it can also lead to ambiguity (American is not exclusive to the United States) etc. The United States article was recently brought here, and moved with no objections; but, the move was soon reverted in order to match the rest of the ice hockey teams. I maintain that changing the ice hockey and bandy teams to match the rest of the sports in Category:National sports teams (including large categories such as Category:National basketball teams, Category:Davis Cup teams, and Category:National football (soccer) teams) is more important. For some of the more well-populated national categories, I've linked to the nation's encompassing national team category below, for more references. I dislike group nominations; but, in light of the move/revert that recently happened, this is the only way to resolve the naming issue as a community. -- Neier 05:49, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The consensus was for these articles to be moved to the noun form (e.g. United States men's national hockey team). I will perform all the moves that require administrative powers, but I will leave the ones where the target is a red link above. This is only out of laziness and does not indicate that they should not also be moved likewise. --Stemonitis 09:48, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The easy-but-tedious moves to the (former) red links are completed. Neier 15:06, 29 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

The image Image:USA Hockey.gif is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
  • That this article is linked to from the image description page.

1948 results

[edit]

I adjusted the ranking for the world championships for 1948 to: 4th. Simply, the IOC disqualified the team from the olympics, the LIHG did not disqualify them from the world championships.18abruce (talk) 15:16, 3 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sailing back from Ice Hockey Olympics 1920

[edit]

Hi, I noticed some datas are missing about U.S. ice hockey players. My free trial 14 days (ancestry) is running out and I found quite all the U.S. soccer player.

These are the pages I found:
back from Southampton with S.S. Mongolia 13 may 1920:

S.S. New York, 22 may 1920

Hope these useful to complete your records.--Nipas (talk) 22:57, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
