1968 Miss NHL Pageant[edit]

I note that this section was put in without citations of any kind, and there are zero hits on Google News for this other than for this article. I can find no reference to it in any contemporaneous NHL histories.

Aside from that, much (if not all) of the info is trivial, and the kind of promotional stunt most sports leagues do from one time to another. My final problem with it is that the section is longer than that listing the events of the entire 1969 regular season, which I'd venture to suggest would be considered of greater importance, and blows holes through WP:UNDUE. Should citations be provided, this can safely be trimmed to "The league held a beauty pageant for the first and only time this season, with a contestant from every franchise. Miss Minnesota North Stars Lynn Marie Stewart was named Miss NHL 1968, and was named the NHL "ambassador" for the 1968-69 season, making various appearances and helping to present the Stanley Cup."
