Does Luongo make the Hall of Fame?

[I am not exposed]

Officially retired, but does he make the Hall of Fame? Pretty hard for goaltenders to get in, and he does lack hardware. Although his career numbers certainly are impressive enough to be included.

[Addison Rae]

Yes, absolutely.

 

[singlesliceofcheese]

His Twitter alone should make it to the HOF.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Obviously.

 

[ThatsSoSlavin]

It’s not only his stats but his personality and what he meant to the sport.

With that being said based in on his stats alone the answer is still yes.

Lock er’ down

I think he will get in, but I don't think he should be. Hall of very good for me.

 

[Note Worthy]

He'll be in for sure.

 

[BlueBaron]

No cups. Maybe not.

 

[InfinityIggy]

He will get in for sure, He is among the all time greats in terms of goalies.

 

[inthewings]

Yup. He's one of the best goalies ever.

 

[robert terwilliger]

curious what the argument against him is. playoffs i guess? his career as a whole is obviously worthy, without question.

 

[Better Call Sal]

Duh.

 

[artemponomarev]

What is the biggest difference between him and Joseph? Slightly more wins, slightly better GAA and save percentage.
Both have Olympic golds though I don’t know if Joseph won one as a starter
The question is not trolling, really curious why does majority votes so. Is it only personality or nostalgy or Joseph was not so beloved ?
Started to watch NHL here in Russia when Joseph career was almost over

Easily

they seem pretty comparable to me. luongo has two AS-2s on his resume where joseph has none but that's partly (actually almost entirely) a function of playing in a weaker era for goaltenders. i'd bet on both getting in eventually. the hhof has been more stringent in terms of goalies than any other position but maybe luongo will open the floodgates.

 

[NotLeddy]

Absoutely. Even without a Vezina or a Stanley Cup, his longevity, the amount of wins, consistency and international accomplishments make him HOFer quite easily. I think he makes first ballot.

The lopsided result arrived quickly.
