Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they all made it.

At least a dozen or more are mortal locks and from the rest most are still young enough that they have (prime) years to make their case (Kaprizov & Matthews for example).

The only guy I have question about is Erik Karlsson. Everyone else I think has a good shot.
I'm not even a huge EK65 fan but this is a really bad take.

On my personal list, all aside from MAF, Marchand, Kaprizov, Rantanen, Panarin, and Pastrnak.
I think all 6 of those guys are going to have enough in their resumes when it's all said and done.

MAF has probably the weakest case but Vegas probably gets him in.

I voted for all of them. I’d be surprised if every single one didn’t get into the hall. The only ones that even give me pause are Fleury and Rantanen, but if guys like Carbonneau and Lowe can make it then they’re getting in too.
Panarin....?

Dude is already 33 years old, and has 804 career points.

Not to mention he hasn't really done much for his resume in the playoffs, 61 points in 73 playoff games.

the only forwards I question is Pasta and Marchand who may finish with the lowest PPG amongst the forwards (other than Barkov who has Selkes)

3 Norrises and (surely) 1000 points gets you into the HOF, no question

in 687 GP, which puts him 5th in PPG amongst active players, and is currently 13th all-time in assists/game

many have got in the Hall with lower GP (Bossy, Lindros, Bure, Forsberg, Lafontaine, Stastny etc)

He didn’t even arrive in the NHL till 24. During the time he’s been in the league, he’s 5th in assists (ahead of Crosby).

Unless something bad happens, he’ll easily blow past 1000 and finish closer to 1200 or so despite his very late start. He’s been named the top LW in the league twice and finished 2nd two other times. As low as the bar is, there’s no reason he shouldn’t get in.
