Is Artemi Panarin a Hall of Fame Winger?

[KirkAlbuquerque]

He’s more of a HoF caliber player than other guys who will probably get in like Marleau, Tavares, et al.

The late start might doom him though

 

[DingerMcSlapshot]

Probably not. But many worse players are in it.

People in this thread are writing him off too quickly.

Two top five Hart finishes. A third that's top 20.
Since 15/16 when he broke in the league he's the 5th highest scorer (one slot ahead of Sidney Crosby)

That's pretty good. He only has three top ten points finishes though... not so great. No top ten goal finishes.

That doesn't scream HOFer but he's got more to play. He needs some more strong seasons to get there. I'd say outside shot but definitely has a shot.

I think he may not be first ballot but will get in.

Not quite a compiler but Panarin’s case is bolstered by the accumulation of awards / honors:

WJC gold
WC Silver + 2x Bronze

Gagarin Cup
KHL First Team All Star

NHL 1st AST x2 + 2nd AST x2
120 point season
Calder Trophy

In aggregate he’s tracking towards HHOF career. Hitting 1k points would really strengthen his candidacy. Another 100 pt season or a Cup would make him a near lock but not sure I see either of those in the cards for him.

I think Artemi Panarin has a hall of fame-level skillset. Perhaps, only hurt by being a late bloomer?

 

[ps241]

Kevin Lowe is in the hall of fame for being drafted by the Oilers and traded to the Rangers.

 

[featherhawk]

won't know until he is retired...its silly guessing now...

guys got alot of productive years ahead of him yet IMO

Once he hits 1000 career points, it'll be difficult arguing against a four-time post-season all-star, albeit at a weaker position, belonging in the HoF.

Sounds like there’s consensus that if he plays a couple more seasons and hits the 1k points mark then he should have a fairly good shot at the HHOF. Remind me! 2 years
