There was a thread on this a awhile back here on hf. If I find it I’ll let ya know
HOF induction standards for players with 1,000+ points
How do the Hall of Fame voters determine if a player with 1,000+ points ends up in the Hall? It's simple - they consult this infallible flowchart:
Here is the thread.
I don’t think he’s trending that way, but it’s possible. He only has two real standout seasons and no playoff success, and I think he will probably have to do more to rise above a somewhat unfair reputation as too small and soft to be the best forward on a real contender than someone who better fits the stereotypical mould of franchise player. A lot will depend on how many more big seasons he can have, his longevity and playoff success. Still far to go.

This season is going to be the best of his carrer. I want to see if he can replicate it outside of a contract year.
If he doesn’t win any major awards he’ll have a difficult time making the hall and he’ll be in purgatory like Fleury has been in.
Too early to say, he needs more sustained success. Right now no but he has a chance.

Too early to say. If he has some cup runs in him and has a few more Hart worthy seasons then that’ll be his path.
Needs a few more seasons similar to this one and decent seasons into his mid 30s unless he leads a team to a cup

This is pretty much impossible to tell. If the question is has he achieved enough to already earn a spot in the HHOF, then the answer is unequivocally no. If the question is does he have the potential to have a career that warrants a spot, then of course. If he has a few more seasons like this past one then it pretty much guarantees him a spot eventually.

In fairness, he could very well win one this year. It's a tossup at least, among the group that's vying for the Hart.
& the guy already has found another gear, I'd say. 115 points is elite. And he's already had a 99 point season and a 84 point one, and a 78 point one. That's all really starting to add up to something.
If he reaches 1000 points, I think he DOES make it into the HHOF, individual awards or not.

He stays with Calgary, I think he's got a shot. They got a good thing going there and I think that line can be dominant for a few more years if they can remain intact.

1000 points isn't the automatic it used to be.
There are currently 21 1000 point scorers who are HOF eligible and not in
Pretty much this and really for me it depends on which Johnny shows up over the next 2-5 years the 21-22 Johnny or the guy from the previous 2 years.
Also his playoff resume really needs something.
didn't vote.
If he continues having seasons like this, then yeah for sure.
But no, he’ll likely regress next year as he has in the past. I’m sure he’ll still be ppg moving forward, but that’s not good enough to get in the HHOF with no hardware.

He only misses if injury shortens his career. The ability is evident to anyone willing to watch.
Wiry little guys like Gaudreau usually age pretty well. No history of concussions or knee injuries. I think he has another 700 points in him, so yes.
