Or anything positive coming out of Melnyk's mouth will have the opposite effect.Its too bad the org hasn't made a statement or even attempted to create some buzz re: Alfie & the HOF. Instead, they are relying on guys like Scanlan to do the work for them. Helping ensure Alfie becomes the first Sen inducted into the Hall of Fame is a slam dunk, yet again, Melnyk asleep at the wheel.
editWould have really liked to see Alfie and Brian Murray get into the HHOF today and I think that it will happen for both of them eventually.
That being said, kudos to Marian Hossa for getting in. He is the first modern day Ottawa Senator drafted player to get in and was a great player for the Sens and still enjoyed watching him win Cups in Chicago. Classy two-way player that was a force on both sides of the puck.
Also, another Ottawa connection going into the HHOF with Doug Wilson.
