Are The Sedins 1st Ballot Hall of Famers ?

[Ace of Hades]

Yep they are easily first ballot hall of famers.

The best counter response one can make toward such biased and misinformed users. Well done.

If they were not related neither of them would be first ballot, but since they are twin brothers they'll both get in together as 1st ballot because it makes for good ratings, tweets and memes.

Not sure what your point is...

 

[Regal]

Neither one deserves to even get into the HHOF, 1st ballot or later. It's supposed to be for legit Superstars. 1000 points is just not that special.

Yup. Legit superstars like Dave Andreychuk and Phil Housley

 

[TheBradyBunch]

It really depends on who retires that year/the years before.

The main competition would be:
Jagr
Thornton
Chara
Zetterberg
Marleau

I'd put them pretty close with Thornton, Chara and Zetterberg, and definitely ahead of Marleau.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Both. They must go together, because they've played together for the entire career.

LOL. Not sure why the Leafs were dragged into this........But it's pretty funny how you only show their partial stats.

Sundin had 1349 career points when he was all done. Gilmour ended up with 1414.

Sittler probably shouldn't even make the Hall, with his 1121, but he still did. The point is, they let too many non Superstars in. No need to let in any more.

What you can't seem to comprehend is that Sedins BELONG in the superstars category when it's all said and done.

Stay non-objective and biased as always.

Lol u just got rekt

 

[Seanaconda]

Depends on the year. They are gonna get in together so they need 2 spots, and if they dont mind playing at a discount they might play for a while longer even tho they are so slow

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

For sure first ballot for the BC sports hall of fame. But I think they'll get in the HHOF.

.........except for all that evidence to the contrary. IE: Their careers.

 

[Ace of Hades]

.........except for all that evidence to the contrary. IE: Their careers.

You mean for the majority of time where they were franchise level players that owned teams by themselves and as a duo?

You wouldn't know that when you were sleeping when the Sedins played.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

no, they will get in because the HHOF is BY FAR the easiest to get into but not 1st ballot

 

[DFF]

Unfortunately, in the heavily racist and heavily eastern-biased league known as the NHL, the Sedins' will likely not be considered first ballot Hall of Famers. Their credentials definitely warrant it, but they won't get their due until later.

Is the NHL anti white?

 

[glovesave_35]

When people are ear-marking guys like Marleau as future HOF'ers then the Sedins will get in and at the first opportunity. How many HOF worthy players will retire right around the same time as them that would potentially push them back a year or two?

Let's just ignore the fact that Sundin and Gilmour played in a higher scoring era and weren't behind Naslund/Morrisson/Bertuzzi for the first 6 or so years of their career.

 

[GreatGonzo]

Both will most likely be HOFers. Henrik had the much more impressive peak and prime compared to Daniel, who still had a great one. Henrik is one of the best playmakers of his generation, has a Hart, and is a multiple time AS.....That will go far in terms of his HOF worthiness.

My problem with Daniel is that his peak, although very impressive, was extremely short....with good-decent seasons in between. His production has become very inconsistent since his Art Ross year. He sits 7th in overall points among active players, with his brother at 6th, with their PPG being almost identical. But Henriks has is status as a playmaker. Daniel, although a good goal scorer, doesn't really have that extra something to his career.

 

[GreatGonzo]

Let's just ignore the fact that Sundin and Gilmour played in a higher scoring era and weren't behind Naslund/Morrisson/Bertuzzi for the first 6 or so years of their career.

A majority of Sundins prime was in the DPE. In fact, a majority of his career was in a lower scoring era....

From 1997-2004, he has 625 points in 639 games. That puts him 3rd in points, 5th in goals, and 10th in assists. Add the fact that he was a 2nd team AS center twice. He also was a PPG from 2006-09.

So sure, did he peak in a higher scoring era? Yes, but he more than made up for that with being one of the best and most consistent players in the DPE.

 

[Josepho]

oh yeah and for the record i'm in no way slandering sundin there either i think he absolutely deserved to get into the HOF as well

 

[bathdog]

L The point is, they let too many non Superstars in. No need to let in any more.

Like Sundin?

So sure, did he peak in a higher scoring era?

No, he didn't.

 

[GreatGonzo]

Like Sundin?



No, he didn't.

114 points with 47 goals in 1993? That was most definitely his peak year. That doesn't mean his prime didn't consist of great seasons, but yes 1993 was a freakish year scoring wise and Sundin had his highest scoring total that year.

Disagree.

Being 4th in scoring (16 pts/17% behind first place) and tied 2nd in goals (11 goals/21% behind first place) is probably better than...

Being 11th in scoring (34 pts/23% behind 2nd place) and tied for 17th in goals (29 goals/38% behind first place)... I'm not sure it's really debatable?
