Listing for PR as this short list is part of an exsiting featured topic on National Hockey League awards. While this article was assessed A class at the time of the initial FTC, subsequent changes in the FT process now require a peer review be complete. Thus, I open the floor to all comments and suggestions. Resolute 02:27, 14 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ruhrfisch comments: Very briefly, here are some suggestions for improvement. If you want more comments, please ask here.

• Provide context to the reader - the article does not spell out National Hockey League in the lead and does not even link it anywhere in the article that I could find.
  • Done.
• Needs more information - for example: Why were there five monthly winners in the first season it was awarded and none in the second? Is the monthly award given the same name? How did the first year winner not in it any of the five months?
  • No clue, haven't found the reason for doing so.
• The apparent direct quote in the infobox (criteria for winning it) needs a ref.
  • Done.
• WHy was the award established? Why does Messier get to decide it? WHat is Cold fX?
  • a. Can't find it. b. yes, it's in the article, c. added.
• Any chance for a picture of one of the winners?
  • Done.
• I do not think the topic should be promoted with this article in this quality - it needs some work.

Hope this helps. If my comments are useful, please consider peer reviewing an article, especially one at Wikipedia:Peer review/backlog (which is how I found this article). Yours, Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 11:36, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your comments. I've been away for over two weeks, and I'm still pretty busy, but I'll hopefully address your comments within a few days. Maxim_(talk) 00:20, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, thanks for the comments. I've also been too busy to do anything more than vandal reverts for the past little bit, but your comments will be addressed. Resolute 14:23, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Addressed the concerns as well as I could. Maxim_(talk) 22:19, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

More comments by Ruhrfisch:

• The History section has no references at all and needs them.
• Ref (Luongo shares Moose boost) is used as a ref for two monthly award winners but does not specifically say who won which month. Just Googling Lecavalier and Messier and Award finds this ref - try looking for a better ref for Niedermayer too.
• Ref 1 explains that the first season at least there was both a monthly winner and a year winner - this should be stated in the History.
• Ref 2 is dead
