Delete unless a reliable source can be found showing that he played for the South Africa men's national ice hockey team. Pburka (talk) 18:21, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete ~~as Hoax~~ Fails WP:NHOCKEY. I cannot find a single source for this guy. If he played ice hockey in Canada as the article claims, he would have a hockeydb entry, which he does not. No hits on google either -Pparazorback (talk) 20:32, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- I'm no sure it's a hoax. This seems to confirm that he played for the LCC Saints, a junior team in Australia, or possibly in some summer program organized by that team. Pburka (talk) 22:58, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  - I stand corrected, still !vote for Deletion, the player does fail WP:NHOCKEY, also appears to fail WP:GNG -Pparazorback (talk) 00:23, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: I did some digging, and could find no evidence that this fellow ever played for the South African team in international play. No other credible source exists that would allow a pass on either NHOCKEY or the GNG. Ravenswing 03:52, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
