 * Delete: Given Hmlarson's curious argument that NHOCKEY isn't valid as a deletion ground because NHOCKEY doesn't accord presumptive notability to female players, my retort continues to be that as long as being a hockey player is the sole stated premise of a subject's notability, failure to meet NHOCKEY's a valid reason to delete. It's also true that the GNG supersedes NHOCKEY, but since neither Hmlarson nor anyone else has presented evidence that the subject can meet it, no article on her can be sustained.

 * Delete - Fails WP:NHOCKEY No indication of wide GNG. Article is well referenced, however all sources are essentially databases, stat sites, brief routine mentions or Primary sources. Would challenge other editors to provide a single instance of a significant, dedicated article on the player that might be used to support GNG. Fenix down (talk) 09:01, 29 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete Summed up pretty well already. I can find nothing anywhere that indicates they meet the WP:GNG. -DJSasso (talk) 12:48, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete The purpose of Wikipedia is not to right great wrongs. It may not be write that female tennis starts, and male football, hockey, basketball and many other sports starts receive more coverage than players of the opposite sex in the same sport, but it is the truth, and sports notability is meant to reflect real coverage in sources, not some desire for equity in our work. Wikipedia is meant to collect worthwhile knowledge on reality, not to be a platform to push social change or to advocate for a certain point of view. It is not the format to try an propel to stardom sports figures who lack significant coverage in the media.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:35, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
