Strong Delete: Doesn't come within a country mile of meeting NHOCKEY, no evidence he could meet the GNG, and I'd be curious as to learn upon what basis the article creator felt this was a valid subject for an article? Ravenswing 02:51, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I know nothing about hockey, but I do have a question. Does this article subject meet NHOCKEY point 2 though ? Aoziwe (talk) 04:23, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No. He fails NHOCKEY. See

WP:NHOCKEY/LA for a list of leagues considered to satisfy the NHOCKEY criteria. Joeykai (talk) 04:38, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply

Okay - thanks. Aoziwe (talk) 11:16, 5 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Criterion #2 was intended to cover two situations: the 19th century period in Canada before professional hockey existed, and the Cold War period during which the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia maintained ostensibly "amateur" leagues to satisfy the rules then-prevalent in the Olympics and the IIHF world championships.
