First NHL goal

“Pretty cool how it worked out for me having my first assist be on an Ovi goal and he feeds me a beautiful pass,” Boyd said. “Had a wide-open net for my first goal so pretty cool.”^[1]

Travis Boyd (ice hockey) → Travis Boyd – Individual is the more notable person out of the two in the disambiguation page. He is consistently in the lineup this year with the Washington Capitals and was on the Stanley Cup winning team last season. He also has won gold for the US Junior teams and was on the Second Team in the AHL. The other Travis Boyd doesn't have a page currently and the only thing I could find about him is that he was part of a band (one whose notability is debatable). A search on Google such as 'Travis Boyd music' doesn't give you any hits on the drummer so I don't think believe he is notable enough to make the main page a disambiguation page.

Support. No one else named Travis Boyd has an article on WP. Station1 (talk) 21:47, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Support Per nom and google searches, he is clearly the most notable. When I google searched "Travis Boyd sleeping giant" the first hit was Sleeping Giants Wikipedia page and the second hit was a video for this Travis Boyd. Also, see Pages that link to "Travis Boyd" vs. Pages that link to "Travis Boyd (ice hockey)". HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 22:01, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
