Our class of 2011. What a team. Congrats to Hank, Danny & Lou.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Hell yes. They got it right. 1st Ballot Hall of Famers as they should be.

Well done and well deserved!

 

[timw33]

God it makes me so ****ing sad that they got so close, but they 100% deserve this on first eligibility. Two of the most unique players of all time.

This is so awesome and so deserving for all 3. Luongo top goalie of his era, 4th all time in wins, great longevity and Olympic Gold. Sedins were obvious shoe ins with their awards, 1k points, and Olympic Golds

So sad these 3 salt of the Earth guys never won it all

 

[VanillaCoke]

The whole Sedin era starting right from the draft trade was incredible and something to behold.
Very deserved!

 

[Pastor Of Muppetz]

Congratulations to all three..Hank and Daniel especially..Classy players and classy people…

 

[LaVal]

The Sedins are a very good example of not giving up on a player too early. Their first 4 years in the league there were so many fans that wanted them gone.

 

[Vector]

f***ing fantastic! Sedins changed the way the game was played. Luongo was absolutely dominant. Good synergy with the Sedins and Alfredsson both being long-time Captains of Canadian teams.

I never watch the HHOF inductions but I definitely will this time.

SUMMER OF CANUCK!

 

[MikeK]

Loved these players and their team. Miss them all terribly. My interest level hasn't been the same since.

Congrats to all the inductees, well deserved. I'm a little bit surprised that the Sedins got in this year, thought they may have to wait as there are other awesome players that has been waiting for a while, and this might be the year to get a couple of those guys in.

 

[StickShift]

If you have been to the HHOF—it’s pretty stark how little the Canucks are featured or how few have been able to leave their mark there. Great to see our players make it.

Also, eat huge piles of manure every person who ever referred to them as "the sisters".

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Also, eat huge piles of manure every person who ever referred to them as "the sisters".

Oh, their doubters and haters were many over the years, even on here.

Eat it and smile.

Couldn’t be happier for the Twins, and Lu, too.

 

[canucksfan]

Awesome. The Sedins are such great people too.

 

[Aphid Attraction]

Congrats to all the inductees, well deserved. I'm a little bit surprised that the Sedins got in this year, thought they may have to wait as there are other awesome players that has been waiting for a while, and this might be the year to get a couple of those guys in.

I wonder if there is a bit of a make up call by the nhl for them not getting a good clean shot at the cup.

It would be interesting to see if star players find it easier to get nominated when they have not got cups compared to if they have, especially if they were the nhls chosen team when they won

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Also, eat huge piles of manure every person who ever referred to them as "the sisters".

I’m sure Benn and Seguin will apologize when they get the call.

Oh wait…

 

[Red]

Well deserved.

 

[hellstick]

The Sedins were always underappreciated, glad to see them as first ballot hall of famers here. Luongo is certainly deserving as the top goalie in the world for a prolonged period of time. Such a shame we couldn't win the cup with these three on our roster at the same time.

Not a fan of Alfredsson getting in, felt maybe Mogilny is more deserving there

 

[thecupismine]

Extremely well deserved, put a huge smile on my face today. Until today I think there was maybe one (Bure) player inducted who went in as a Canuck - being able to quadruple that number with one class is awesome. Fantastic human beings on top of being world class players as well.

 

[EpochLink]

Much deserved.

Congrats to Daniel Alfredsson as well

 

[vadim sharifijanov]

love boeser, love petey, love hughes. but here's some context to three calder finalists:

1992-1994 we could. not. believe. it. vezina runner up/fourth place hart finalist kirk mclean + calder winner and goal scoring champ/100 pt scorer pavel bure. that was an embarrassment of riches the likes of which we'd never ever seen before.

in 2002-2003: hart runner up/art ross runner up markus naslund + third place in scoring/fifth in hart voting bertuzzi. again, unprecedented. those guys finishing 2, 3 in the scoring race was unbelievable.

but 2007-2011: henrik won a hart trophy and daniel and luongo both finished second. henrik and daniel won art rosses. luongo lost the vezina in just about the tightest race ever, to the winningest goalie of all time in the winningest goaltending season of all time.

that'll be unsurpassable until a canuck wins the conn smythe.

 

[Treefingers]

Tremendous players and people. Very well deserved.

Me a happy kid
