16px Hook (#1) is interesting and inline sourced to the NHL which, for these purposes, is fine as RS. The article is NPOV and new enough, having been created on July 29. A QPQ has been done and there's no image. Earwig returns "Violation Possible" on copyvio check. On further examination these are largely utilitarian and functional phrases, however, some of them might be rephrased slightly out of a preponderance of caution. For example:

The article says "Knoblauch received the Matt Leyden Trophy as the OHL's Coach of the Year in 2015–16, and was named to the OHL's Second All-Star Team in 2013–14." while the NHL says "Knoblauch received the Matt Leyden Trophy as the OHL's Coach of the Year in 2015-16, and he was named to the OHL's Second All-Star Team in 2013-14." The only apparent difference between these two sentences seems to be the addition of the word "he" which might be construed as WP:CLOP. There are a few other instances of this as well. As I said, I think this is highly unintentional as these are functional, utilitarian sentences, but out of a preponderance of caution we may want to just adjust.

Other than that a great article! Chetsford (talk) 20:42, 2 August 2019 (UTC)

I've made some changes, including to the sentence you cited above, and I ran Earwig after the changes and it came back for me as "Violation Unlikely". So I think this is resolved now, but let me know if you want any further changes! — Hunter Ka hn
