Junior player who has yet to play professionally or meet any of the conditions of WP:NHOCKEY. Can be recreated when/if the subject acheives notability. I do acknowledge his being the first pick overall in the OHL, however that is not notable as many people picked in that position have never amounted to anything. WP:CRYSTAL. Since it was a disputed prod claiming it that the player won a major award. The Jack Ferguson Award is not a major award, not every award given by a league is major. The major awards are MVP, Top Defence, Top Goalie, First All-Star team. (generic names to apply to any league). An award given to someone drafted first is none of those things DJSasso (talk) 11:39, 23 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete Has not yet met the standards set by WP:NHOCKEY. Being the first player drafted in a junior league does not establish notability. Receiving an award for being the top drafted player in that same junior league is not "preeminent honors" as based in #4 of the NHOCKEY inclusion criteria. Can be recreated or restored when notability is established. -Pparazorback (talk) 03:15, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep: Explicitly passes criteria #4 of WP:NHOCKEY as it is now written. This player went 1st overall in the OHL selection draft, and he has achieved preeminent honours by being awarded the Jack Ferguson Award, which is a major award given by the Major Junior OHL.

- Delete: The Jack Ferguson Award is not a major award. It's more of a gift to go along with being selected first overall. Non-notable player that will likely be notable in the future; just not yet. – Nurmsook! talk... 01:38, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
