Non-notable hockey player, fails WP:NHOCKEY, no evidence he passes the GNG beyond routine sports coverage debarred by WP:ROUTINE. Sources are exclusively press releases. Has only played 12 professional games, all in the minor leagues. Article falsely asserts that the subject has played in the NHL. Ravenswing 06:40, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:NHOCKEY at the current time. Can be recreated when/if he meets it or otherwise becomes notable. -DJSasso (talk) 13:23, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep or Redirect to 2012–13 Detroit Red Wings season. Article is verifiable. This goaltender was called up to the NHL and was on the Detroit Red Wings' roster, but did not play in a game; nonetheless, a quick search for sources demonstrates he likely passes GNG. Note: The sheer volume of AfD nominations by this editor (45-plus and counting in the last four days alone) going straight to AfD, without first using PRODs or appropriate tagging, is disruptive. The nom should be reminded that deletion is a last resort, and per WP:BEFORE should only be used after other alternatives, including redirects, have been fully explored.

So provide the sources if you think he will meet GNG. The onus is on the creator to prove notability. -DJSasso (talk) 18:57, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Fails NHOCKEY and GNG. None of the leagues are considered a top professional league according to WP:NHOCKEY/LA. Patken4 (talk) 21:17, 14 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
