Subject fails WP:NHOCKEY. Highest level of play was the ECHL but was never a First Team All-Star nor did he achieve preeminent honours. He did not achieve either of these in the WHL as well. Article was created by a user who created hundreds of non-notable stubs which resulted in a permanent ban from creating articles.

Delete - fails NHOCKEY. Interestingly, the stats section of the article - which shows over 100 AHL games, consistent with the old NHOCKEY notability standard - is not consistent with the stats shown on either Elite Prospects or the Hockey Database. Given that those sources only show 1 game at the AHL level, and a very common name, I am disinclined to perform an extensive search for GNG sources. But if someone wants to and finds multiple reliable sources with significant coverage (and it is plausible given a fairly long career) I would be happy to change my !vote.

- @Rlendog: I have fixed the stats, probably a copy-n-paste error of a different player's template when it was added in February 2020. Yosemiter (talk) 21:25, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  - @Yosemiter: Thanks. That makes sense now. More confirmation that this player is likely non-notable. Rlendog (talk) 18:56, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
