Comment I don't know anything about hockey, but isn't the Elite Ice Hockey League an "an existing or defunct top professional league"? If so, ~~keep~~ would make sense on those grounds. Intelligentsium 00:57, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

According to WP:NHOCKEY/LA, the EIHL is a "Lower-level league." He fails NHOCKEY. Joeykai (talk) 06:12, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Are you sure? That essay was written in 2014, and the article on the EIHL says "Formed in 2003 following the demise of the Ice Hockey Superleague, it is the highest level of ice hockey competition in the United Kingdom". It sounds "professional" and the "highest level extant" to me. Intelligentsium 10:34, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I am sure. According to WP:NHOCKEY/LA, the EIHL is a lower-level league "for the purpose of satisfying criterion #4." Criterion #4 of NHOCKEY is "achieved preeminent honors" and he has achieved no honors. He fails NHOCKEY. Joeykai (talk) 15:32, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

OK, deferring to your topic knowledge, I !vote delete. Intelligentsium 22:00, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Only 18 games of AHL experience, and his time in the EIHL is of no consideration given the low level of play of that league. Deadman137 (talk) 23:12, 21 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete as apart from the teams he played with, he's still questionable for solid independent notability as an article. SwisterTwister talk 06:59, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
