If Mats Sundin can get in, having no real harware or playoff success, then Tavares can get in. They'll both be right near a point a game when all is said and done. He was a top center for the majority of his career. I agree, he really should be in the Hall of Pretty Good, but until they construct that, he'll be in the HOF. They should have an honourary category for players like him.
Sundin got one of the best international careers ever though in addition to being the face of the franchise, he also probably got some good will as first #1 in draft from Sweden(even Europe?). Played in a lower scoring era aswell.
Not saying they are terribly apart in terms of ability(or well I kinda believe so but that's moreso on Sundin underperforming in the NHL so not a point in his favor really) but Sundin just got some extra spice.
