Not seeing the sources for this player that meets WP:GNG and is currently well below the standards of WP:NHOCKEY. (Not to mention that this article was created by a user who has since been banned from creating hockey player articles such as this.) De-prodded by user stating "there are enough sources that he may pass WP:GNG." Number of sources are irrelevant when they are all stats pages, WP:ROUTINE signings and transactions, a large number of local news coverage (as is "Look what the local kid is doing" variety), and blogs. He gets the typical prospect coverage for his speculative potential in the NHL, but the coverage was not continued. Currently just WP:TOOSOON for notability and can be re-created when/if he generates more coverage. Yosemiter (talk) 15:29, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete Yosemiter sums it up quite well. Number of mentions in sources does not matter. They must go in depth and not be routine coverage. This player does not currently meet WP:GNG. -DJSasso (talk) 17:10, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
