Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jeff Teal
Whether you agree with them or not the criteria for sports people in  are much more objective than for most people, and this subject clearly passes them. Also when you say, "we would have hundreds of articles on minor players who didn't make it in the NHL, MLB, NBA, etc." horses, bolting and stable doors come to mind, as we already have thousands of such articles, and anyway worrying about opening the floodgates is |not Wikipedia policy. I would also question whether any player who has played at all at this level "hasn't made it". Only a very small percentage of people who take part in organised sports get to such a high level
