Graearms, I don't understand how you could have reviewed this yesterday, according to your sig, over 13 hours before it was nominated. I'd also like to suggest that a hook that uses the phrase "goal song" twice should probably be reworded to avoid the repetition. BlueMoonset (talk) 14:38, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

BlueMoonset I copied a previous template from a different review. Then I manually edited most of the comments and notes to fit this review. Including the signature.

- ALT1: ... that the New York Rangers have not won a championship since they debuted their 1995 goal song, "Slapshot"?
- ALT1a: ... that the New York Rangers have not won a championship since they debuted their 1995 goal song?
- ALT2: ... that the goal song of the New York Rangers has been both praised and described as a curse?
- I'd prefer the original hook. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 03:10, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
