Roenick had 513 goals and 1216 points in 1363 games
Turgeon had 515 goals and 1327 points in 1294 games
Larmer and Propp are a wash
I think most would put Joseph and Vanbiesbrouck above Vernon
There just doesn't seem to be much rhyme or reason to your list
STEVE LARMER was Not exactly a “WASH”. Just as Good/Better Stat’s than 75% of the HOF’amers currently inducted but it’s more a popularity/politics that get in the way of inducting certain players (HELLO THEO FLEURY) in the HOF nowadays.
HOF can induct players from 1900-1960’s & because they are from the “GOOD ‘OL” Boys Golden Era questionable players got elected with a pass cuz they were either on CUP Winning Teams (Only 6 Teams which are GREAT Odd’s) & the Comittee keep’s those Era’s sacred. It’s weird because Expansion came in 1970’s & there were 2 PRO LEAGUE’s in the 1970’s (WHA & NHL) which watered down the talent pool in the sport (ORR/LAFLEUR/ESPO’s era) of hockey quite considerably yet players from THAT era are still held in high regard. 1980’s took the Best Players out their Rival Pro League competitors in 1979 & Merged the two which made for an exciting “Run & Gun” Speed, HITS, FIGHTS, GOALS etc yet a lot of players from the 1980s era get GYPED/Overlloked completely because scoring was up (Yes scoring was up, but so was everything else, Geez there is 31 Teams Now).21 TEAMS was near perfect, You had Europeans in the league (Which the good Old Origional 6 DIDN'T), You had ONLY 1 Pro Hockey League, You could HIT/FIGHT without getting a penalty (compared to nowadays or it’s a Power-play or Suspension).
Hockey from 1979-1996 was great for ALL fans, SAVES, GOALS, HITS, FIGHTS etc, How many Hits/Fights do you see today??People will say “OH don’t put this guy in HOF cuz he didn’t win any “Awards/Stanley Cup/Gold Medal/High Numbers Etc”
YET if a player from 2000-present does “2 out of the 4” alot of people are like YEAH put em in.

STEVE LARMER
- 400+ Goals/1000+ Points in 1000+ Games (Point A Game)
- Iron Man Streak Most Games Played by a Player on 1 team (884)
- Calder Trophy (Rookie of the Year)
- GOLD MEDAL (With Team Canada 1991)
- STANLEY CUP (1994 NY Rangers)
- 2 Way Player Blocked Shots/Hit Etc
——————————————————————
Played a 2 way game, Won in Playoffs/International play Winning Gold on TOP LINE with #99 in the Tournament facing the Best of the Best Leading Team Canada in Goals, Scoring SHORTHANDED Game Winning Goal to WIN the 1991 (WORLD/Canada CUP). I see some players getting inducted into the HOF who have done a lot less than LARMER yet because we are in the “NEW” era of HD TV & space age equipment etc they try 2 find something and anything to put a guy down from that era. Let’s see the bitching about a 31 team league (10 MORE Teams than the 21 in 1980s).
I have 450+ Hockey Games 1950’s - Present & by watching the actual Games rather than just read a BOXSCORE its hard to read how a Player actually played & how good he was. If you haven’t watched a guy play (I watch my Classic Games a few times a week) so you can study/watch/be an unbiased Hockey FAN (which some cannot do due to a team that they are loyal too) & enjoy the best game on earth IMO. Only 2 or 3 players today could DO what “RICKY MIDDLETON” could do, Instead of talking about it, Let’s SEE the Action & PROVE IT. Middleton scored Amazing Goals & I’m glad he’s getting his NUMBER RETIRED by Boston Bruins.
THEO FLEURY had drug/gambling/booze problem, Big deal, he dealt with heavy stuff but he PROVED IT on the Ice @ every level. I’m not attacking anyone or you I’m just saying check out and watch the history/certain players rather than type a Player’s Name in “Hockey Reference” and “ADJUST” things, I mean if people are gonna ADJUST the 1980s then why are they not ADJUSTING the current league with a bloated Gary Bettman 31 team league?
My personal opinion is the NHL should have Stopped expanding @ 24 Teams (12 in East, 12 in West). Cheers
