fails WP:NHOCKEY and WP:GNG Joeykai (talk) 22:52, 14 July 2016 (UTC)
- A quick search indicates that he does have some coverage, e.g., [http://www.startribune.com/meet-mr-hockey-grant-besse/196787811/ this] and [http://www.twincities.com/2014/02/05/grant-besse-wisconsin-minnesota-series-offers-freshman-unique-test/ this], so I am not sure he fails GNG. 16:07, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

- Keep - the page needs some cleanup, but there are some good sources linked on the page, an awards of note, as well as the links in the note above. I'm thinking mainly of the USA Today article, which is dead but shows that he has had coverage, as well as [http://americansportsnet.com/ignored-by-hometown-team-wisconsins-grant-besse-finds-his-game-against-minnesota/] [http://www.twincities.com/2012/03/10/benilde-st-margarets-grant-besses-five-goals-lift-hockey-team-from-tragedy-to-the-ultimate-triumph/], [http://www.foxsports.com/wisconsin/story/wisconsin-badgers-grant-besse-get-last-laugh-against-minnesota-gophers-011615] and others.

- Note: Went through page more closely, and the USA Today is just the high school version. Still some other good state coverage with some curated awards, so I'd still vote keep, even though otherwise he barely passes WP:Hockey per nom. Yvarta (talk) 11:40, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
