 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment : I personally think Colangelo is notable, but unfortunately he narrowly missed the first round, meaning criteria 5 is barely missed. If anyone can find other sources please add them. Eternal Shadow   Talk  00:56, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete: I can't see any basis to conclude that the subject is notable (and wouldn't mind Eternal Shadow setting forth his reasoning that he is), and anything beyond that is a CRYSTAL violation, so deletion is the only option.   Ravenswing     05:31, 29 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep - He has enough coverage to meet GNG, which is not surprising for someone who was considered to have a good chance of being a first round pick. There are already two reliably sourced articles specifically about Colangelo in our article from the Boston Herald and the Boston Globe.  I also found an article about him in The Athletic, and article at nhl.com, an article partially about him in the Chicago Sun Times, plus 7 paragraphs in this Hockey Writers article and an article about him here (as well as his own Hockey Writers article, although I think a lot of lower level prospects get this too).  He also has an article about him in New England Hockey Journal, although since it is behind a paywall I can't see how extensive it is.  And he got a small amount of coverage in the Hockey News here (plus a few one sentence updates elsewhere). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rlendog (talk • contribs)

 * Keep per new sources, particularly in light of WP:NEXIST. FOARP (talk) 14:01, 11 November 2020 (UTC)


 * comment still fails the basic hockey notability..which is the basis of his notability. Article hasn't been updated to note new sources Triggerbit (talk) 07:23, 13 November 2020 (UTC)
 * The basis of his notability is GNG. The article can be updated with the additional sources if and when the article is kept. Rlendog (talk) 13:25, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
 * weak keep: Not many sources available,  Queer Eco feminist [they/them/their] 06:24, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep. Subject passes WP:GNG and has potential to be expanded. A poorly written article is not grounds for deletion itself. Flibirigit (talk) 22:18, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
