/ Beginning in 1946, the NHL took over publication of the Official NHL Guide from Can-Am Sports. For many years, the NHL included much of the same format as the previous official guide, including Jim Hendry's format and content from Who's Who in Hockey. In 1984 NHL renamed their annual publication and switched to a magazine format under editor Dan Diamond to accommodate the enormous amount of historical content.
