 * Keep per WP:NHOCKEY #4.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 11:37, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
 * What award has he won that satisfies NHOCKEY #4? Joeykai (talk) 19:48, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Well, I was thinking either the first or second one listed is fairly notable although neither is enumerated in the guide.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 00:36, 12 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Right, so he fails NHOCKEY. Joeykai (talk) 04:05, 14 May 2017 (UTC)


 * This guy is not as bad as a lot of delete notifications. He fails WP:NHOCKEY, so I'd give it a reluctant Delete with the caveat that we may be getting into excessive delete territory.  There is a lot of junk that comes through and the ice hockey subject should be regularly purged of such.  I'm not sure if it makes sense to go after these articles, but so far I'm willing to keep the Delete.  BTW, should we consider that Dave Peterson Award for deletion?  It's completely out of date, and appears to be a fairly low level award, Bill McKenna (talk) 23:56, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Honestly, there've only been as many hockey-related deletion discussions as there've been because Dolovis for years openly defied notability guidelines and community consensus to plump up his article creation count into the top 50, and we're reaping the consequences of not shutting him down a lot earlier than it eventually took. Joeykai and others have nominated nearly 200 of these NN subjects in the last year or so, and that's just the tip of the iceberg; my own estimate is that there are over a thousand such articles and redirects.
