Non-notable amateur player who has yet to play professionally so fails to meet WP:ATHLETE or WP:N. Also fails WP:HOCKEY's guidelines for player notablity WP:HOCKEY/PPF#NOTE. Can be recreated when/if he plays professionally or otherwise achieves notability. This is just a typical case of players being added days after being drafted which time and again consensus shows is not enough to satisfy notability. Djsasso (talk) 17:22, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

:delete Doesnt seem to have anything mentioned here why hes notable. no sources present. Byond this as stated above second rounders are not notable until they play professionally. 1st rounders though are. I can see the first few picks in the second round squeeking by but again nothing in the article explains why hes notable. We can re add him once he satisfies the criteria at player notablity WP:HOCKEY/PPF#NOTE for hockey players. Ottawa4ever (talk) 21:55, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

  • Delete. Hasn't played professionally. Hasn't won a significant amateur/junior award. Patken4 (talk) 22:21, 30 June 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete per prior precedent: Examples include 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and at least 25 other AfDs for similar players. When/If this player wins a major award or plays in a fully professional league, then this article can be recreated, until then, he is not notable per WP:HOCKEY/PPF#NOTE. -Pparazorback (talk) 21:59, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete: Standard post-Draft article creation frenzy always results in a lot of non-notable bio pages. This is one of them. – Nurmsook! talk... 04:48, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
  • Delete. Fails WP:ATHLETE. Niteshift36 (talk) 07:19, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
