The result was delete. - Mailer Diablo 11:41, 27 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
A few very minor assertions of notability: Selected 209th in 2003 NHL draft (but went to college instead); captain of the Harvard University hockey team, which is all very nice, but for one thing Harvard is not exactly an athletic power; and a top player in the North American Hockey League, which is a "Junior A league", whatever that means, but clearly a minor league. If and when he plays in the NHL, then of course he gets an article, but at this point, they guy seems to not come close to meeting any criteria of WP:NOTABILITY.

- Delete Few players (like Luc Robitaille, for instance) get drafted that low and make an impact in the NHL. Harvard's team isn't ranked in the top 20 by ESPN, but they do have a strong program. Either way, he still has a way to go before satisfying WP:BIO. Caknuck 06:56, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Neutral, Harvard have a decent hockey program and he seems to be one of their best players right now, but maybe this should just be recreated when he is further along in his career. Recury 16:55, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete per nom. No way to know if he'll even pursue a hockey career once he has a Harvard diploma. If he does, and makes the NHL, recreate then. Fan-1967 21:31, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete He's not a pro player, and shouldn't have a page until he becomes one. And the article really doesn't need to let us know what final club he's in. On the other hand, Harvard won the NCAA championship in men's hockey in 1989, and has been a contender a number of times. Reese's coach, Ted Donato, was the tournament MVP in '89.
