A list I worked on some time ago but failed to nominate at that time. There are a few redlinks for some of the oldest teams, which I do not believe should be a problem but can fix if desired. Fun Fact: My grandfather played in the 1953 tournament, and that team was recently honoured by the Manitoba Hockey Hall of Fame. Resolute 16:48, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Comments - Just wondering why are the Host Locations very inconsistent? for example the "1919 to 1971" table has no locations linked, and "1972 to 1982" has them linked and "1983 to present" doesn't even have the column, plus on a personal opinion the Abbreviations would create some type of confusion with the readers as I would expect some may not know that Alberta is abbreviated AB (just an example I would expect them to not be familiar with the other regions as well).

- Umm, yeah. That was a bit of a miss on my part. ;) I've changed the first two tables to be consistent - using just city names and linking only the first usage. From 1983 on, the host city was de-emphasized in favour of the host team, which is noted in italics. Resolute 01:14, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Musta accidentally looked over the Italics part. and I would think overlinking the host city column wouldn't be a bad thing and would remain consistent with the table as after all the Team names are linked multiple times. Afro (Its More Than a Feeling) - Afkatk 01:29, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Duly overlinked. :) Resolute 00:12, 29 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Quick comment: I think the "score" column should go between the winner & runner up columns, similar to what is done at List of Grey Cup champions. -- Scorpion0422 19:04, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Not a bad idea. Updated. Resolute 00:07, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comments Support –
1983 to present: "they had been defeated by Spokane Chiefs in the WHL playoffs." Add "the" after "by".Note b: "The Chicoutimi Sagueneens hosted the 1988 tournament at the Colisee de Chicotimi, however were not guaranteed a vote." Not in love with the grammar here. Merely switching "however" to "but" is the fastest way to improve it.In the first table, the score is sorting improperly. The double-digit scores are sorting in a different group than the single-digit scores. I think the figures need sort templates.Giants2008 (27 and counting) 22:32, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- All three fixed... I hate sortable tables, lol. Resolute 00:07, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
