The subject lacks significant coverage in independent, reliable sources. I can find nothing that would satistfy WP:GNG and there doesn't seem to be anything that meets WP:NHOCKEY either. Mduvekot (talk) 18:23, 4 April 2017 (UTC)

 * 20-Mule-Team Delete: Hell, I can't find ANY Google hits other than this article, written in just barely coherent English. A peek at eliteprospects.com shows that the subject played but a single undistinguished season -- three years ago -- in the Belarus minor league.  Contrary to the article's assertion, the subject never was drafted by the Colorado Avalanche or by any other NHL team.  This is about as overwhelming a failure of NHOCKEY as any non-hoax article I've seen.  Americannews888, the creator, has as his sole Wikipedia activity this article, and it's of concern that he cites his own self-published source.   Ravenswing   04:23, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Per - it's almost bordering on a hoax with the claim he was drafted to an NHL team. The sources included actually contradict that...  CHRISSY MAD  ❯❯❯  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  22:12, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Per Elite Prospects, subject played for one season on a second-tier club in Belarus, and was not drafted as asserted in the article.  caknuck °  needs to be running more often  22:24, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete Per GNG and Ravenswing. I was unaware that mules were faster in number, though. I have never gotten my mules to turn over L3X1 (distant write)  01:24, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per WP:CSD. It's not a hoax only in that the subject exists. I don't think G3 is so strict that an article that contains nothing but a real person's name and a big list of obvious lies doesn't qualify for speedy. "Candidate for the master of sports", the easily disproven claim he was drafted into the NHL in 2014, the language that indicates he had a say in which team drafted him, etc. The only source worth anything is the first, and it goes to a page that just confirms he doesn't come within a mile of passing any of the WP:NHOCKEY standards. The guy's self-composed fan fiction doesn't deserve a real deletion discussion.  City O f  Silver  03:16, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Following the sources through, the claims in the article appear false and nothing can be found to justify retention. Alansohn (talk) 21:37, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
