WikiProject Biography Summer 2007 Assessment Drive
The article may be improved by following the WikiProject Biography 11 easy steps to producing at least a B article. -- Yamara 17:59, 29 June 2007 (UTC) So was he born in Alaska or Arizona? the article states both as his birth state in different parts of the article.
Any fault of Conklin's is completely impossible to prove and should not be included as part of this article. It is counter to Wikipedia's purpose to make any judgments upon or within the information.
I deleted the part where it sais many people believe he cost them the cup. Thats an incredibly stupid thing to have here. Why not also mention the team blew a 3 goal lead? you can't single handedly blame conklin for it. -- Akaces23 23:48, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
This just in; according to CBC.ca's NHL bios, TY Conklin has been waived and assigned to rgw AHL's Syracuse team. For Proof, go to CBC.ca. ohyeh 13:35, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
I think that the references to Conklin's playoff performance need not be updated when the links expire- it is pretty much public record, and I doubt substantiation will be a problem. -- Scimitar 16:59, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
I was reading this paragraph:
I think it's unfair to say that the goalies were ineffective. They got Roli for the playoffs. Markkanen and Conklin were doing well, but I don't think they saw any reason to keep Morrison... - Britishenglish 01:51, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
Uh, any ideas for how to resolve the page text/"edit" links/medal box conflict we've currently got? It doesn't look very nice. ConkblockCity ( talk) 20:36, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
Howard is expected to compete with Conklin, not the other way around. Holland said as much, but he also gave Conklin a one-way contract that will basically make it impossible for them to send him to the minors this year, whereas Howard can come and go freely. The info about the competition is on Jimmy's page, OK? Considering Jimmy's not even on the roster or the website at the moment, and Conklin is, I feel it's least speculative and simplest to let the facts speak for themselves. ConkblockCity ( talk) 01:37, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
Um, I'm wondering whether or not to preface "Despite having played one game between March and June..." with an illustration of the Oilers' 2006 playoffs:
"As the team proceeded to make an unexpected and unprecedented run as an eighth seed to reach Edmonton's first Stanley Cup Final in sixteen years, Roloson would play every minute in the 2006 Stanley Cup Playoffs, with Conklin and Markkanen alternating games as the backup."
Just to show how sidelined he was and the unfortunate magnitude of the stage where he took the blame for losing what would not have been a tied game, had the Oilers not blown a three-goal lead.
Thoughts? – ConkblockCity ( talk) 01:14, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
In the same vein, out of curiosity: "Perhaps the most cuttingly accurate assessment of the {emotional and cultural} impact on Conklin's reputation was given by two popular parody videos created with tabletop hockey figures and distributed on the Internet as part of the Knob Hockey series..." Hilarious and pretty widely-seen, but can they be cited? 'Cause I'd love to quote "Ryan Smyth".... -- ConkblockCity ( talk) 23:35, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
