I'm looking for constructive criticism on ways to improve the article. I have taken the time to expand it from a one-paragraph stub to its present state. It's currently assessed as "start", and I would like it to become at least a "B" article. Any suggestions to improve the article, aside from the obvious needs a photo?

Total medals and thus breakdown seem to be incorrect
Per
this source (ref 1 in the article, used in the lead), during his tenure "Canada’s national teams have won 76 medals at world championships, Olympics and World Cups", not "During his tenure as president of Hockey Canada, national teams won 71 medals in international competitions".

Citation #20 should be in that place instead. It matches exactly what is said in the lead section. As for the total 76, it is likely a typo. The other citations in the second paragraph about her term as president agree with 71, not 76.
