My username has no hidden meaning. It is completegibberish.

My primary interests are Canadian subjects, ice hockey biographies or history. I actively research theCanadian Amateur Hockey Association andHockey Canada. I also work on biographies forHockey Hall of Fame andIIHF Hall of Fame inductees, and recipients of theElmer Ferguson Memorial Award, thePaul Loicq Award and theTorriani Award.

I focus on ice hockey administrators, referees, coaches, and journalists who are overlooked and forgotten. Occasionally I write about sport journalists recognized by theCanadian Football Hall of Fame orCanada's Sports Hall of Fame.

I have previously worked on articles related tojunior ice hockey, including theCanadian Hockey League, theOntario Hockey League, theQuebec Major Junior Hockey League and theWestern Hockey League. I was not good at citing sources when I worked on these subects, and slowly but surely I will improve my earlier efforts and improve the quality of the articles.

	The Original Barnstar
	Thanks for fantastic ongoing work on improving/expanding/copyediting the hockey articles, of which your recent overhaul of hockey (and war) heroEdward Lyman Abbott is a shining example. Glad to see you came out of retirement and decided to "lace them up again".Jmg38 (talk) 05:53, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

		The Original Barnstar
		For massively improving ice hockey articles, and focusing on topics not usually covered (coaches, executives, non-playing personal in general). Your work is much appreciated.Kaiser matias (talk) 19:02, 8 December 2018 (UTC)
