He lacks two of the four requirements. He doesnt have any League mvps, art rosses, or richard trophies. He isn't a ppg player. He would need to get at least 500 goals and 1000 points to be considered. There are so many better players that produce more points from his era and they have the repuation of the rat.
Even in his peak he wasn't in the top 10 producers.
Most points from 1999 to 2019. There are clearly better players that are HOF worthy over him. He never was a top 10 producer in the league for any decade. If JT Miller and Voracek are out producing you , you are not getting into the Hall of Fame. No one thinks those guys belong in the HOF. HE is a skiled player, but rat scum on the ice. HE just isnt a HOF skilled player when compared to the best of his era. Pasta probably makes it if he continues on the same pace for another 5 or more years. I cheer against the Bruins obviously but that guy is a hell of a player.
