Amazing to think that a future hall of famer was traded for such a harmless picture.

Not Serge Savard most glorious moment...

Who the ... is Vaclav Nedomansky????

Asked my wife, she went “oh, he got in?”

Guess he’s a big enough deal over there. I had never heard of him before

It was typical Ronald Corey (Mr.Clean) reaction.... Not really Savard who was rushed to trade him and got Montgomery (ouch !!!!)

He was a far superior player to many players who were already in the HHOF

I disagree, there might be a name or two, but comparing to the worst doesn't really make him.any more deserving. Its not The Hall of the Very Good. He wasn't good enough. Its getting more and more watered down every year. Its ridiculous.

The problem is that it has been the "Hall of the Very Good" for a very long time.

But he was great, though. Great players like Mario, Wayne, etc... are saying as much.

ITT : People don't know what FAME means. It's not Hall of PP goals, or the Hall of cute dekes, or the Hall of regular season points total... it's the Hall of fame.

How do you acquire fame? By drinking champagne from the cup after destroying your body, helping your team to win. Carbo was a leader with a unique skillset who took his teams to the top. Enough said.

On another note, it allowed him to eventually get to Dallas through another trade, be a leader and win another cup!

I don't want to debate this anymore. You're not going to change my opinion and I'm not going to change yours. Let's just agree to disagree and move on.
