Delete Junior A/Canadian university is not a notable level of play. Reso lute 18:15, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment He was on the All-Rookie team in University. Which is a notable award. But there are no references so I am leaning towards probably delete unless some references can be found. -DJSasso (talk) 18:16, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure I'd consider a CIS award as notable, myself, given it is a glorified senior league. Reso lute 18:21, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am prone to agree with you, but I think the level of play is still pretty close to the NCAA so I would be hard pressed to discount it automatically, if significant coverage of him can be found. -DJSasso (talk) 18:22, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
And I would note, I can only find listings that he did win. But no significant coverage. -DJSasso (talk) 18:30, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Not sure being on the All-Rookie team of the CIS is notable. I don't know of an equivalent award that exists for the NCAA, but I don't think an "All-Freshman Team" at the NCAA level would make someone notable either. For NCAA, I think Hobey Baker or an appearance on the All-American team should be the guideline. Patken4 (talk) 21:29, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"All-Rookie" was all that I needed to see to know that this one is a delete. Even pro players are of questionable notability until certain standards are met. Hopefully he'll meet those in the future, but he isn't there yet. Heather (talk) 01:35, 30 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
