Topic of article has not attained notability standards of WP:NHOCKEY or WP:GNG. Membership in U-18 team does not suffice for notability of itself, as it is not the highest level (e.g. world junior or world men's). &#x0298; alaney2k  &#x0298; ( talk ) 18:38, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep – The sources provided above show enough significant coverage in reliable sources for Nieto to meet WP:GNG.  Giants2008  ( 27 and counting ) 01:05, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. Passes GNG. By the way, WP:NHOCKEY says "Ice hockey players are presumed notable if..."; it does not mean that somebody who fails those criteria but passes the GNG is somehow disqualified even though they meet wikipedia's core notability standard. Has anybody ever tried to AfD Richard Feynman because his bongo-playing falls short of WP:NMUSIC? bobrayner (talk) 21:44, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
