Is Artemi Panarin a Hall of Fame Winger?

[BlueBull]

Panarin started his NHL Career pretty late, and is already 31 going on 32.
However, he has almost always been considered an Elite Winger ever since he won the Calder while playing with the Blackhalks. He has been PPG in this era of a rise of New Young Gun Superstars.
Still, I've been asking myself this one question... Is it Enough? Is Artemi Panarin already a Hall of Famer? or does he need some more Elite seasons to solidify his case?

569 regular season points
28 playoff points
Awards are 1 Calder trophy

Not even close

He was such a late bloomer that he prolly won’t make it. But hey you never know.
Great player and seems like even greater personality. One of my personal favorites of all time.

 

[Voight]

He needs more elite seasons.

 

[wetcoast]

He has the makings of a good base or put another way has built a very solid cake but he needs the icing to pull it off.

in his 7 year prime he is 4th in scoring and that's a really solid base.

He's good, but lol, no

 

[PromisedLand]

if Kovalchuk doesn't qualify (IMO he doesn't) no reason Panarin would qualify

 

[Zuluss]

Hart nomination
1x 1st All-star, 1x 2nd All-star (not counting the current season; 3rd in voting last year)
Point finishes 3, 8, 9 (counting the current season)

The prime is there, needs more longevity

 

[Killer Orcas]

He will fall short barring him playing another 5 years at an elite level. Just started too late.

LMAO. What? Jesus, some people want to let anyone in.

 

[EdJovanovski]

I think he’ll have the longevity, he’s a player who doesn’t rely on any specific physical trait to excel. Greatest asset is his mind, and I think he appreciates playing in the NHL as much as anybody, given he has one of the most incredible triumphant back story’s of any player in NHL history.

If he wins a cup I think he will make it.

 

[Mickey Marner]

If he keeps it up, hits 1000+ points and has some memorable playoffs, sure. Still a lot of work to do though.

 

[MK9]

Unless the bottom of the HoF falls out and blows up, FFS no.

 

[jetsforever]

Maybe if he keeps up elite play and wins a Cup or something

 

[HFpapi]

Surprised so many are saying no. I mean, of course he's not in as it stands today, but I certainly think he's having a HOF worthy career if he keeps it up for 5-6 more years. He's better now than Marleau ever was for example and many want to put him in there. I value peak over longevity.

 

[Nickmo82]

Not as things stand, no.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Like McDavid he doesn't currently get into the Hall yet.

5 season from now McDavid is 1st ballot.

Panarin 5 seasons from now if he gets another 400 points 100% I think he gets in.

 

[egelband]

He needs more elite seasons.

Yes. Simply this. Three or four more ppg seasons and he becomes a candidate.

 

[mr figgles]

Right now? No. But, I don’t think he is that far off from a HOF career. He just needs to add some body to it. I think by the time his contract is up, he’ll be a lock.

 

[Bluto]

He definitely could be when it's all said and done. A cup would put him over the top if he maintains production for the next 7 years.

 

[blankall]

No. But he deserves the Sergei Makarov award. Given to the oldest really good rookie from Russia, who had a few good seasons, but didn't really accomplish all that much.

 

[super6646]

Every player with over 1K pts and 5 or more top 10 scoring finishes is in the HOF. Panarin will probably get his 3rd top 10 finish this yr, and he was 11th in 2016-17 scoring.

If he gets 1000 pts, he makes it 100%

 

[MVP of West Hollywd]

Potential HOF but if he retired today not even close

 

[Machinehead]

I think it's just too early to say one way or another. He's only 30.

I wouldn't be as quick as others have been to disqualify him.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Not yet. Would need a few more elite seasons.
