My rule of thumb for what should go in an infobox is whether or not it is essential for a concise summary of the key characteristics of the subject. I believe that divisional, conference, and league titles are key characteristics to summarize an NHL team. I do not believe that retired numbers are key
674:
If you have the coding skill to turn it to a switch then by all means have at it. I just didn't think it was that big a deal. To me the puck with the clock just means season. But I agree to many it probably means current season. I personally like it being first so that its consistent with every NHL

Honestly, sorta partial towards retaining all three, but if were reducing things for the sake of minimalism, I'd be okay with just removing divisional titles (I don't think its even really a thing the League really takes note of). But I'd argue that both the
Presidents Trophy and Conference titles
1220:
I don't support this proposal either. Bottom line, the current infobox setup is more useful as it is currently constructed than what is being proposed; as this proposal would cause greater information loss and be less useful to most editors and readers. Now as far as retired numbers go we already
1179:
While the teams might not hang banners for them, it is critical information to put into an infobox about a team. Division/Conference titles are arguably some of the most important information about a team behind of course the
Stanley Cup wins. We do go with more minimalist infoboxes, so that

Yes, I object because the common usage is "Stanley Cups". The vast majority of times news articles mention how many times a team has won the
Stanley Cup they will use Stanley Cups. Being that we generally follow what reliable sources use, that is what we have in the infobox. Even the
154:, etc.). This template was made with the intent to try and slim the infobox down, as well as remove unrequired information (Captains and Alternate Captains, Alternate Logo) while adding information that would be useful (Media Affiliates, Conference, Division, Titles).

Actually, after some testing in my userspace, the
Anaheim logo would look PERFECT at 200 pixels wide, but the other teams' logos won't look good. I don't think a separate template for Anaheim would be accepted... Dunno, I'm just throwing some ideas out there.

use the phrasing "The Devils have reached the
Stanley Cup Finals five times, winning in 1994–95, 1999–00 and 2002–03", without saying "Championship" or how many "Cups" they have won spelled out either. Knowledge is consistently inconsistent.
849:
I am not exactly sure how to go about making this change, but teams don't win "Stanley Cups", as there is obviously only one
Stanley Cup. Should say something along the lines of "Stanley Cup championships", or wins or titles, etc.

I made this template page so that I would have an opportunity to actually test this template out 'in the field', so to speak, and see what the response would be. At the time of this comment, the template is only being used on the

I would leave the

I disagree. The icon style, with the clock offset to the upper right, is commonly used on this wiki for other sports and other current events. Icons are used to suggest a meaning, and in this case, the meaning is clear:

I've no problem with "Montreal has won the
Stanley Cup 24 times", as there's only 'one' Cup. Overall, it's nothing that I'll lose sleep over, however. I imagine it would be a huge task, to make such changes across
621:
Well the icon doesn't have to be considered only for current seasons just because that is the name of the image. After all its just a puck. On historic articles we link to the list of seasons. Seams to work fine.

to the top of this infobox. It's already at the top of every team page, and it would be a simple matter to add it to the infobox. If need be, we could add exception code in case the season page is not yet added.
930:"Montreal has won 24 Stanley Cups" vs. "Montreal has won the Stanley Cup 24 times"... These two sentences mean two different things. Only the second sentence is correct. (there is only one Stanley Cup).
1293:
They call them out in the media guides and a number of teams do hang banners for them. I think its mostly only the original six teams that do not hang banners for it. So take that for what its worth. -

I think it would be handy to have a link at the end of the infobox to link to each team's official website. I mean, I really don't see any reason why would shouldn't have this. Thoughts?

As you see here we used to have a current season template that was hockey specific but we merged it into the new reworked current template that you just replaced with your new template. -

c) Hockey wikipedia has traditionally gone with minimalist infoboxes, only including the most basic information in the infobox while leaving more specific items in the article text.
