Not a notable sportscaster. Larkspurs (talk) 21:30, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep Because he just got in the booth 20 days ago. Sourced as a basic stub; that's all we need for now until he begins to establish further notability.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 01:31, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep I agree with Mrschimpf's commentary. In addition, this user believes that the article meets all five points for determining notability in WP:GNG. I do have a vested interest in this article, as it is the second one, I think, that I created. Having said that, It most certainly could be improved, but that will doubtless come in time, as the subject of this article gains notoriety.

 * Merge and redirect to Sabres Hockey Network. Despite Mrschimpf's ironic use of WP:TOOSOON, I am not finding non-trivial coverage in independent reliable sources.  Given that the only thing the article says about him is that he is the alternate PBP announcer for the Sabres, there is no reason for a separate article from that of the Sabres' broadcast network.

 * Keep as I was able to find and add several additional articles from reliable third-party sources. The subject now easily crosses the verifiability and notability thresholds. (Bonus: I also found this "Buffalo Foodies" interview that doesn't fit into the article but may be of interest to some following this discussion.) - Dravecky (talk) 20:21, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
