 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails WP:NHOCKEY. He was an all-star in ECHL, which is not enough for notability. A previous AfD in 2009 had consensus to delete as well, and I'm not sure why the article was re-created recently, as nothing seems to have changed. Kaiser matias (talk) 15:18, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

 * Speedy Delete: per G4., what happened seems to be that the article never was deleted in the first place after the 2009 AfD.  I've no idea why a non-admin felt the need to close (other than it seems he was shilling for the mop at the time), but he certainly didn't arrange for an admin to delete the article, and he hasn't edited in over a decade anyway.

 * Interesting, I was trying to figure out what happened, but it was late here and I was kind of rushing (thus the initial PROD rather than AfD as it should have been). Kaiser matias (talk) 22:08, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
 * What happened was that I restored it because WP:NHOCKEY is now met. (See log for restore comment.) -DJSasso (talk) 15:16, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
 * I see that now. Totally missed the ECHL being listed in the criteria. Kaiser matias (talk) 20:06, 16 December 2021 (UTC)


 * Keep: He meets criterion 3 of WP:NHOCKEY since he was an ECHL first team all-star. --75.88.89.194 (talk) 11:35, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep:: Knodel indeed meets WP:NHOCKEY #3 since he was an ECHL first team all-star in the 2018–19 season. Flibirigit (talk) 11:41, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep Meets WP:NHOCKEY #3 since he was a ECHL first team all-star, which wasn't the case yet when the first Afd happened. -DJSasso (talk) 15:15, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep As noted above, I misread WP:NHOCKEY, and see that he does meet notability. Kaiser matias (talk) 20:06, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep: Passes WP:NHOCKEY as it suggests that an ice-hockey player should have played in ECHL, which is a criteria stated in WP:NHOCKEY. Juggyevil (talk) 04:27, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Meets WP:NHOCKEY #3, per all above. Ejgreen77 (talk) 11:14, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
