Big Seven (ice hockey)

Fails WP:N, it is just a cliché. There is no significabt coverage in reliable sources apart from the list of hockey teams itself. I doubt the article can be ever expanded without WP:SYN or something like that. Blacklake (talk) 14:42, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete per WP:NEO. Armbrust  Talk  Contribs  15:55, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete as an unsourced and rather uninformative article about a term that has remarkably few mentions in the press to describe the seven nations (Canada, Finland, Russia, Sweden, USA, Czech Republic and Slovakia).   As a word, it's not at all notable.  Mandsford 16:30, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete. The article's one claim (These nations won all medals at the Ice Hockey World Championships since 1954) is not even true...the Soviet Union and Czechoslovakia won every gold medal from 1963 to 1986. The Czech Republic and Slovakia are NOT the same thing as Czechoslovakia...and Russia is not the same thing as the Soviet Union. --Smashvilletalk 19:42, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
