Non-notable minor league player who has yet to meet WP:NHOCKEY. Can be recreated when/if he does or otherwise achieves notability. DJSasso (talk) 18:34, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Keep – This goaltender is a veteran of 5 seasons of professional ice hockey in the ECHL and AHL where he has racked up 74 games played, and won the ECHL Kelly Cup as a member of the Alaska Aces. Unlike skaters, goaltenders are not expected to play in all games of a hockey season, and for this reason goaltenders in other discussions have been granted a relaxation of the NHOCKEY criteria that a hockey player must play at least 100 professional games. It also appears that this player meets GNG as significant, reliable, and independent news coverage can easily be found including [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6][7] Dolovis (talk) 21:46, 22 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Those links are made up of blogs, press releases and
routine coverage. Goalies have not been granted an exception to the 100 game rule. You did try to bring it up in the past and it was rejected. The fact we have a 100 game threshold is specifically to exclude players who have managed to play a number of seasons but very few games in each such as this one. -DJSasso (talk) 12:56, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply
