Reviewing later. Nova Crystallis (Talk) 19:42, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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]

Improved to Good Article status by HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk). Self-nominated at 22:06, 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]
