I was reading Scott Burnside's article,
http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/preview2005/news/story?id=2172427
about top NHL rivalries, and I discovered that some passages appear to
have been directly lifted or slightly edited from The Sporting News and
Wikipedia articles. Who do I contact to address these concerns?
Thanks

"Claude Lemieux, for instance, became Public Enemy No. 1 in Detroit
when, while playing for Colorado, he crashed Kris Draper facefirst into
the boards in the 1996 conference finals."

From Wikipedia:
"the Battle of Quebec intensified two seasons later with the "Vendredi
Saint" brawl. The following season, the two teams battled for the Adams
Division title, and the Habs won by three points. But the Nordiques
would get revenge in the playoffs with a seven-game victory, clinched by
Peter Stastny's overtime goal."

Also from Wikipedia:
"While the teams played each other often, the teams became pronounced
rivals in the 1970s, when both were yearly contenders. The seminal
moment in the history of the rivalry was probably Game 7 of the 1979
<http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=1978-79_NHL_season&action=edit>
Wales Conference finals. After a rough and tumble series, the Bruins
were ahead in the closing minutes. However, after the Boston bench was
charged with a minor penalty for "Too Many Men on the Ice
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penalty_%28hockey%29>," Guy LaFleur
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guy_LaFleur> scored the tying goal on the
ensuing power play, and Montreal won in overtime
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overtime>. The win allowed Montreal to
advance to the Stanley Cup <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_Cup> finals
The Bruins were defeated in both the 2002
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001-02_NHL_season> and the 2004
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2003-04_NHL_season> Stanley Cup Playoffs
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_Cup> in the first round by the
hated Canadiens"

"The traditional rivals of the Maple Leafs had always been the Montreal
Canadiens <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montreal_Canadiens>, but after
decades of not meeting in the playoffs and during a period when Toronto
failed to ice competitive teams for many years, that /rivalry began to
fade/."
"Many Senators fans were ex-Leaf supporters who had turned strongly
against their old team, while many Ottawa Valley hockey fans remained
loyal to the Leafs."
