 * Keep Being drafted by an NHL team should imply notability. Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Ice hockey  Ordoinc (talk) Ordoinc (talk) 07:12, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - No. Only first-rounders are likely to have notability. Lower-rounders are much less likely (like 5% chance) to achieve notability. &#x0298; alaney2k  &#x0298; ( talk ) 14:06, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Don't go around making up ridiculous statistics. A recent study has found that 19% of drafted players go on to play over 200 NHL games. For a player to play in just a single NHL game, or to otherwise meet one of the criteria of WP:NHOCKEY, is much higher. One need to only look at the evidence from past drafts (for example, the 2005 NHL Entry Draft where only 42 red lines remain from 230 drafted players, so 82% have achieved notability).

 * You realize the page you link to basically supports what Alaney2k said right? That the lower the round the less chance of making it. -DJSasso (talk) 15:49, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
 * My comment was in reply to alaney2k's made-up statistic of 5%. I made no comment towards the crystal ball concerns that this article raises. Dolovis (talk) 20:48, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
