  • Oppose. Not a very interesting picture. Shouldn't he be shooting a puck at a net or something ;) Kaldari (talk) 18:38, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose -- like Kaldari stated, there isn't much be shown here. Maybe if he were shooting the puck into the net in a camera angle so great, then it would be better than this one where he is just standing clueless ;)--₮RU 19:34, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Notablity lacks for a FP. The shadowing is not great either. ZooFari 23:26, 1 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I don't mean how well the man is known. What I mean is that where is his notablity shown in the photo? It only shows that he is a hocky player. An image with his actions should be included. ZooFari 01:45, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose per Kaldari. Papa Lima Whiskey (talk) 02:38, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support. I don't think that a hockey player FP need illustrate them in action, any more than a politician FP need illustrate them in a legislative assembly. Mostlyharmless (talk) 01:25, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
