The Nighbor legend is unassailable here now. By all accounts, he was tremendous away from the puck, though.

I used to put my location as Adelaide on an old forum just because I was always awake at the same time as the Australians on the board so they adopted me.
Anyway I’ll get the breakdown for the 24 ballots tomorrow when I’m not on the cellphone:
Bernie Geoffrion - 177
Earl Seibert - 166
Andy Bathgate - 153
Marcel Dionne - 151
Scott Stevens - 146

Teemu Selanne - 62

Only Horton & Vezina got more first place votes than last place Durnan.
... and recycle a point I made earlier [although the search for the specific post escapes me]. I said that, as we're dealing with such narrow differences between players, I could envision our assessment of players undergoing some tweaks during the season. For instance, who could have anticipated?:If you wanted Patrick Kane eligible, you should have ranked him higher.
Let me just leave this here...... and recycle a point I made earlier [although the search for the specific post escapes me]. I said that, as we're dealing with such narrow differences between players, I could envision our assessment of players undergoing some tweaks during the season. For instance, who could have anticipated?:
Patrick Kane having a Hart-finalist grade year, at an age when players of his skill-set tend to have visible decline, all while having not much more than butt-nothing in the way of teammate-help.
Evgeni Malkin basically ovulating.
That said, and with the Vote Deadline coming up in about twelve hours, thought once again turns to the potential nominees for the next Round. There are probably about 20-25 names that I'd be comfortable discussing at this point in our mission. Just as long as we don't throw in another 110s-type like Brett Hull, or (Hockey Gods forbid!) some guy I De-Listed like, I don't know- Erik Karlsson.
I look at the one-shy-of-70 names that we've added, and...
1) there have been no Players I'd De-Listed who have been nominated, yet. [We came close with Brett Hull.]
2) 58 of my top-60 are safely aboard. Of the two that remain, I hope that one gets Voted In this ballot. The other one- well... I don't think he'll be nominated for a while. [And he's a relatively recent mainstream NHLer.]
I will be really stunned if Charlie Gardiner isn't among the new nominees, though.
The median ranking for Patrick Kane was #108 and he received less than half the voting points of players that aren’t even eligible yet.
Disappointing by not surprising. That's the way the ball rolls with active guys. Always has been. Thanks for (hopefully) putting the Kane talk to rest for now.
