That first statement is a bit strange. Bergeron is worshipped around here, while Toews is near-universally panned.
Name | Reg Season ppg | Playoff ppg |
Toews | 0.85 | 0.85 |
Bergeron | 0.76 | 0.76 |
Kopitar | 0.89 | 0.83 |

He's the best playoff performer of the 3 you mentioned, and he's without question a better offensive player than Bergeron.
Bergeron has 4 Selkes, but Toews has 1 Selke and 1 Conn Smythe. To me, the Conn Smythe is a pretty legendary acheivement. I would imagine a lot of Conn Smythe winner's are in the Hall. He's close to Kopitar, but his career has eclipsed Bergeron's.
Captain of 3 cup winning teams can't be ignored, especially considering how incredible he was in all 3.
I think he belongs in the HHoF question. If he doesn't nosedive during the next 5 years, he's 1st ballot IMO.
