Why do you think it took them so long to induct Rogie Vachon?

Why is anybody in the Hall of Fame? They should kick out everybody but Howe, Orr and Gretzky.

Why isn’t everyone in the Hall of Fame?

Come on- what about Cheevers and Vachon make them more worthy for the Hall than other goalies who have retired and not made it?

This isn’t a gotcha question… I’m just looking for information.

Yeah but 2nd and 4th in Hart voting, that's pretty high end. Canada Cup champ in that timeframe too. Vachon played a lot of games for the Kings, but how do you expect him to win 40+ games on that team? The fact he had a 27-14-13 record on the 1975 Kings is quite the feat. That team had 105 points, and that was all Rogie. Because of splits with goalies such as Worsley it was harder to rack up 30 win seasons. Even Billy Smith only did it once since he was sharing the net in the regular season with Resch or Melanson later on. And yet Vachon still ends up 5th in wins at retirement. These aren't some strong Kings teams he was playing on or anything like that.

I was nearly bedded two super models. But the left with another guy. That is how view almost winning something.
