Top-60 Pre-Merger Players Of All Time: Round 2, Vote 10

You'd have Hyland and Roberts over Oatman for longevity? Neither of the former two stand out to me for length of prime, though Roberts's prime certainly would've continued on had he not rightly prioritized his medical career.

Longevity as an good/elite scorer

Oatman played for a long time, but those guys have more good offensive seasons than Oatman.

I maybe was slightly misleading with how I phrased the post.

Fyffe's point system is based heavily on deployment, which is tied into longevity. Since Cleghorn's offense is middling, the logic is that he had defensive value to play for such a long time. To be fair to Fyffe, I fell for that trap too while making my original list.

The closest comparable in terms of impact is probably Mike Gartner?

Also, completely off-topic, but isn't "Blair Russell" actually Blair Russel with only one "L" at the end of his surname?

That's the thing though with my naive reproduction of offensive point value Cleghorn still looks pretty strong in this field with no fudges being made.

His offense was decent, but very valuable to the teams he played on
