[edit] NHL Alumni

I just deleted out a lot of players ... some who played for a senior league team of the same name in the Fifties, some who never played in Shawnigan at all, some who never played in the NHL and some who I can't even verify existed. Whoever put the list together either copied it from another source without checking or did some very sloppy work. RGTraynor 09:05, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Team History

I as well took out some things, such as the line that said Snoop Dogg wore a Shawinigan Cataractes jersey in his video for 'Gin and Juice". The jersey is that of the old Springfield Indians (now the Springfield Falcons) of the AHL. I can see how someone who didn't know hockey could get mixed up as the Springfield jersey has a similar color scheme, and their logo features an S with a similar logo to the Cataractes' in the center.

I also added that the arena opening has been pushed to 08'09, I learned this from team personnel as I talked to them while they were here in St. John's, as well as fixed a minor spelling error. I agree with the above poster that this is a sloppy job. Byebyebettman 19:21, 9 March 2007 (UTC)
