This article should be deleted as it is not notable under the WP:GNG,WP:BASIC and WP:SPORTBASIC. This is because the article has no reliable, independent, and nontrivial (mentions of the subject) sources included and a WP:BEFORE search found no reliable, independent, and nontrivial (mentions of the subject) sources. This means the article should be deleted. -KAP03(^{Talk • Contributions • Email}) 01:13, 9 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Strong Keep: Weegar has already played two games for the Florida Panthers of the NHL. Not only does this meet NHOCKEY, but playing in a major professional sports league meets every notability criteria from WP:ATHLETE on forward (SPORTBASIC, for instance, holds that "The guidelines on this page are intended to reflect the fact that sports figures are likely to meet Wikipedia's basic standards of inclusion if they have, for example, participated in a major international amateur or professional competition at the highest level") With over six hundred Google News hits [1], take your pick.

Keep. Meets WP:NHOCKEY, per Ravenswing, as a current NHL player. WP:BEFORE, anyone? Ejgreen77 (talk) 03:27, 9 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per all of the above. Connormah (talk) 19:43, 9 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy keep - The subject meets SPORTSBASIC and NHOCKEY as an NHL player and meets GNG with coverage in multiple reliable sources, (e.g., [2]. [3], [4], [5], [6], [7]. Rlendog (talk) 14:29, 10 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
