Comment Moroney played in the Swedish Hockey League between 1963 and 1974 (with some stops elsewhere). Doesn't that count under NHOCKEY? Alaney2k (talk) 17:34, 10 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I don't speak Swedish, but from what I can glean from Google Translate, this is significant coverage in a reliable source, and there seem to be other news sources. Υπογράφω (talk) 03:24, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Passes NHOCKEY under criteria #1 by playing six seasons in the top swedish league (from 1948 until 1975 it was called Division I).18abruce (talk) 09:39, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Meets WP:NHOCKEY #1 as a former player in the top-level Swedish Division I league. Ejgreen77 (talk) 12:05, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete one case of significant coverage is not enough to pass GNG, it requires multiple cases which is lacking.John Pack Lambert (talk) 05:59, 15 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:NHOCKEY. As a player from a non-English speaking country who played prior to the Internet era the special notability criteria are particularly useful, since much of his coverage will likely be difficult to access. Rlendog (talk) 02:51, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Passes WP:NHOCKEY. Smartyllama (talk) 17:50, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
