Contested prod. Subject does not meet notability criteria per WP:HOCKEY/PPF#NOTE or WP:ATHLETE. —Krm500 ^{(Communicate!)} 01:04, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

One article in a reliable source contributing to significance of coverage is [1]. Much of the other news search results, however, are merely routine sports reporting, not establishing notability. More usable sources might be found with further research. Alison22 (talk) 01:45, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Junior World Champ for Sweden, a number of articles solely about him, and according to his NHL Draft Prospect card has a number (2) of records despite a playing record under the "100 games" in WP:HOCKEY/PPF#NOTE. Zelse81 (talk) 02:38, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Second place is not the champion. --Smashville^talk 17:35, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Does not meet inclusionary guidelines. --Smashville^talk 17:35, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Lehner has spent all of the current season in the Ontario Hockey League. Is this not regarded as "an amateur league considered, through lack of a professional league, the highest level of competition extant" per guidelines? And has he played in the Elitserien?--Freshfighter9 (talk) 03:02, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
There is no lack of a professional league. There are professional leagues in hockey. That is meant for sports that don't have a pro league. -DJSasso (talk) 03:07, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

According to eliteprospects.com and eurohockey.net, he has played in the under-20 and under-18 Elitserien leagues, but not at the top. — Twas Now ( talk • contribs • e-mail ) 12:13, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Um. There is professional hockey in Canada. In fact, inside sources tells me, that North America even has a league. --Smashville^talk 17:14, 29 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Fails WP:ATHLETE. Can be recreated when/if he ever plays professionally or other wise achieves notability. It would be a WP:CRYSTAL violation to do otherwise. -DJSasso (talk) 03:07, 25 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Hasn't played professionally, hasn't won a notable amateur award, hasn't competed at the World Championship's or Olympics, wasn't a first round NHL draft pick. Once he accomplishes one of those, the article can be re-created. Patken4 (talk) 15:01, 26 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
