NN amateur teenage hockey player, fails WP:NHOCKEY, no evidence that he meets the GNG. Article is all but unreferenced in any case, and the creation of an editor with numerous such articles up at AfD.   Ravenswing   19:16, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete: WP:TOOSOON for now until if and when h gets drafted in the first round of the NHL. Only decent coverage (from a possible WP:ROUTINE source since they really only cover the WHL) is this in-depth write up on him. Otherwise, he has not yet achieved any NHOCKEY criteria.

 * Draft: Possesses high potential. Hurrygane (talk) 19:44, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment: What Wikipedia notability criteria do you claim the subject's alleged "potential" satisfies?   Ravenswing   00:40, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Response: It's just common sense. Turning this page into a draft now would save a lot of time in the future. I think we all know he has the potential. 1) He's already a recognized figure in Finland (received an invitation to the Finnish Independence Day Reception in 2016). 2) He's a projected first round pick for the 2017 NHL Entry Draft. 3) He captained the gold medal-winning team at the 2016 IIHF World U18 Championships.

 * Moving to Draft status would be appropriate. All these articles were likely created prematurely and have at least a 50% chance of being a first round pick in the NHL draft. Yosemiter (talk) 14:46, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Nothing is lost by deleting. We admins in the project, typically go back and undelete these types of player pages that are deleted if they end up becoming notable so effort is never lost. -DJSasso (talk) 17:43, 18 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Delete Very much too soon. Can find no evidence they meet GNG and arguments that they might be notable in the future are WP:CRYSTALBALL. -DJSasso (talk) 17:45, 18 April 2017 (UTC)
