 * Keep I have reverted the undiscussed merge. We split these lists out for all 30 teams to be consistent. There are lists that are smaller than this one which is by no means a small list. -DJSasso (talk) 20:54, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I would also note smaller coach/gm lists than this have been kept at afd previously. -DJSasso (talk) 20:58, 3 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep A merger does not require an AfD, as even if there was discussion to do so, the old article would be redirected to the target.  Especially if this becomes a case where preservation of edit history is required.  That said, being a small list does not disqualify one from usefulness.  i.e. List of Calgary Flames general managers.  Also, per DJSasso, as this list is one of a defined set for each NHL team.

 * Keep per DJSasso and Resolute. Rlendog (talk) 22:29, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
