Being 13th as of today in defensemen scoring is enough, by the time his contract ends he will be 9th.

People have to remember that a lot of HOVG players get into the HOF. There are worse players than Burns in there for sure.

I still remember the day the Wild drafted him, and folks were all WTF. Not highly rated by Central Scouting, and 40 points in 68 games as a forward. O'Sullivan in the second helped people get over it.
Only later did we learned he was a D'man until has draft year, and when you saw the skating and the goofball he was, well, many of us were sold, especially when he was moved back to D.
I'd be very happy to see him in the HoF.

no its not. terrible logic.
Jamie Benn won an Art Ross trophy, that alone is enough to get into the Hall of fame. He's going to surpass 1000 career points before it's all said and done. On top of that he's big, strong, handsome and plays hockey the right way. And for over 3 years Benn was leading the NHL in points as a feared powerforward: NHL Stats
