Hockey Hall of Fame 2017

[Arselona]

It's about the numbers, which Andreychuk had. Numminen does not.

Had Numminen played 1600+ career games, he could very well be in hall as well.

I doubt that.

 

[Michael Farkas]

It's about impact on the game...numbers may or may not accompany that. Don't rely on numbers first (or, God forbid, solely)...

i don't want to rag on andreychuk any more than has already been ragged on him, because he was a good player, a good guy, and it's not his fault. you have to feel for the guy, who was just a good team guy who loved the game and played forever (and you have to love a guy who will ride public transportation to games along with the fans), and when they induct him into the hall of fame all anyone does is talk about whether it was a mistake.

but this image is worth a thousand HHOF threads

watch, in 15 years we will have Andreychuk standing in Gartner's place, handing a plaque to Wendel Clark.

 

[The Roy Of Ottawa]

There is nothing wrong with Andreychuk. He was a 600+ goal scorer.
