NHL Hockey Hall of Very Good

[Oilers Propagandist]

Who belongs in here current or past?

I'll start; Pierre Turgeon, Markus Naslund, Marian Gaborik

Even though he made the HOF, I believe that Sundin should be in the hall of aight instead.

[SheldonJPlankton]

Another vote to demote Sundin.

 

[Bizz]

Nabokov

 

[VanIslander]

Pat Flatley?!?! Do you mean LaFontaine?

No. LaFontaine is in the HHOF.

In terms of HHOVG (this thread) I meant the Isles 1st round pick and 5-year captain of the Islanders, Pat Flatley, "The Chairman of the Boards", one of the greatest role players in franchise history.

Here is Flatley outmuscling LaFontaine:

I'm going to say what everyone is thinking but doesn't have the guts to say. There's no way in hell that Harry Mummery belongs in this discussion.

The two-time Stanley Cup champion defenseman who is in the Manitoba Hall of Fame? He is often drafted in the All-Time Drafts (the ATD board here at HfBoards) as a depth option. He's closer to being a HHOFer than he is being a joke, Mr. Zen. HHOVG suits him.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Who belongs in here current or past?

I'll start; Pierre Turgeon, Markus Naslund, Marian Gaborik

Some current players:

Claude Giroux
Rick Nash
Jason Spezza
Eric Staal

No points in 4 games with the 22-23 Saskatoon Crescents says otherwise.

I'm confused. guys that are in that shouldn't be?

guys that shouldn't be, but might?

 

[joe dirte]

I'll go with guys I consider just below HOF level, or debatable.

Larmer
Doug Wilson
Roenick
Nicholls
Tkachuk


I would vote for the first three for HOF if I had a vote, but they were the heart of my team when I had my season tickets, so I can see how they're boderline. But all of them would be first ballot in my HOVG.

Bernie Nichols?

def in. a step above everyone else you mentioned.

dino ciccarelli. no business in the hall.

 

[VanIslander]

Vinny Damphousse

No non-HHOFer has more NHL assists.

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

No. LaFontaine is in the HHOF.

Here is Flatley outmuscling LaFontaine:

I know that LaFontaine is in the Hall. I just can't believe that someone would possibly make a case for Flatley being even close to Hall-worthy.

Kevin Stevens
Martin Straka
Alexei Kovalev
Ulf Samuelsson
Markus Naslund
Chris Kunitz
Robert Lang
Sergei Gonchar (edit: although I think he will be elected to the HHOF by 2025)
Tom Barrasso
Matt Cullen

 

[Coffey]

People are going into the territory of "Hall of Mediocre."

 

[Giotrapani91]

Pat Flatley?!?! Do you mean LaFontaine?

Personally I think Kronwall should be in not first ballot but I'd induct him best shutdown defenseman of his era I'd say right behind chara. Anderson is in. Middleton, and zubov should be in imo. Same with Wilson, I'll throw Adam foote as a borderline candidate cuz he didn't get a lot of credit as a d-man, same with ozolinsh.

 

[Giotrapani91]

Bernie Nichols?

def in. a step above everyone else you mentioned.

dino ciccarelli. no business in the hall.

Tkachuk and Nichols should be in imo let Roenick wait until NBC's deal is up in 2021, so we don't have to listen to him. Wilson id say is borderline. Same with Larmer he's another borderline guy.

 

[BreakingGood]

My general line is that Owen Nolan is the best player who I really can't be bothered listening to a Hall of Fame argument for. If you're better than Nolan, I take it seriously, even if I'm not committing to voting for. I'm probably out on Vincent Lecavalier and the Hall, but I'll listen. Someone like uhh Simon Gagne, or Alex Tanguay (two guys who I think maybe have cases if they didn't have some rough circumstances/injuries during their prime-age years), no, they're not even quite Nolan, I'm not bothering with that.

As for Naslund, I kinda think he's got a sneaky HOF case, but I still prooooobably don't vote for him.

Vinny Damphousse

No non-HHOFer has more NHL assists.

Turgeon has more, not to mention active players Jagr, Thornton & Henrik Sedin, although most (if not all) of the latter 3 will eventually make it into the HHOF.

 

[koyvoo]

David Booth next.

 

[aemoreira1981]

Tim Kerr...370 goals but only played 655 games. Also, Brian Propp, whose career was ruined by Chris Chelios.

 

[The Macho King]

CuJo.

 

[AfroThunder396]

D-Men with Weber's resume are in the HHOF, WITH ONE NOTABLE EXCEPTION, and Shea Weber would be a very odd candidate to start the trend of leaving them out (provided he continues to add games).

EDIT : The notable exception is Carl Brewer. The catch : Weber already has more complete seasons than Brewer.

0 Cups
0 Norris
0 Conn Smythes
0 Harts
2 first team all-star selections

If Weber gets in the Hall then you have to let the likes of Mike Green and Dion Phaneuf in as well.

0 Harts

So pointing out Harts and CS trophies are ridiculous and not relevant.

His Norris voting record is very good, and he has 4 post-season all star awards. 9 straight seasons as top 10 in Norris voting, 4 post season all stars, and 3 times a finalist. That is (likely) Hall worthy, although hopefully he waits a bit.
