I don't believe the best player to lace them up
#99.
Did he have guts???

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

I don't know if he will be top 100 in those stats.

Playoffs though he easily wil be top 50.

If he wins one cup he's hall of game

He just needs 67 assists to get into the top 100 in assists. He's already top 100 in goals and points. How long he will stay there after he's done is another story. I really hope he wins the Cup within the next four years so it makes it easier for him to stay in San Jose the rest of his career.

Thanks for stats I should have clarified playoff goals I know he wasn't there overall for goals

 

[OrrNumber4]

Marleau would not make my HOF.

Good for very, very long. But not ever great...

 

[Danish Pastry]

lets get this out of the way cow palace shark fan marleau is my favorite player ever... he is not in the HOF he is as has been said the hall of very very good. a cup and three or four more high goal seasons he gets in maybe after a few misses... Jumbo is the only first ballot guy we have...

 

[LeeIFBB]

If he had played his whole career in Toronto, he'd have a chance at the HOF. In reality he is a HOVG player.

 

[BCShark]

still doesnt show up in big games

 

[Ninja Hertl]

Marleau does have a lot of playoff goals but playoff goals-per-game might be a bit low.

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

His playoff g/g is higher than regular season

 

[USF Shark]

Marleau, when he retires, will go into the HOVG (hall of very good)

 

[VanIslander]

1. He could win the Stanley Cup.
2. He could win the Conn Smythe.
3. He could keep skating, passing, and scoring for the next 5 years at his present clip.

Any TWO of those three and he'll be inducted into the HHOF. The Hall has Bernie F, Dino and Joe N. There'll be room for Patty if he does it!

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

If he wins a cup and Smythe this year he is easily in

 

[Ninja Hertl]

His playoff g/g is higher than regular season

Where can I find these numbers? hockeydb is kind of ****** for quick calculations

 

[Linkster]

a lot of people bash Marleau.

When he retires

they will still bash Marleau.

That is not damn good!!!

 

[Sleepy]

He's got a good shot. Does need a cup or smythe tho.

 

[Timos Death Stare]

still doesnt show up in big games

This is complete BS. He's the one who scored the series clinching goals TWICE against Detroit - one in game 7.

Are there series where he's better than others? Yes. But he sometimes is the only Shark to show up in series (CHI) and you're just totally off base.

[TomasHertlsRooster]

The last 4 series' we've won, Marleau has scored the series winning goal in 3 of them

Also in game 7 against la I'm pretty sure we outshot them like 12-4 while Marleau was on the ice

 

[Suddenly Zyuzin]

Marleau is not a Hall of Famer. Even if he wins a Cup. A lot of his aggregate stats are also a product of him playing a ton of games. But that's also a credit to him being a very good player for a long time. He is not a Hall of Famer, but if the Sharks ever retire numbers, he should unquestionably be the first guy to get that honour.

He's not yet but he still has opportunities to make a better argument. A Cup would obviously help but so would him getting very high up on the all-time games played list and being 500-500 or better. He's never going to be confused with the game's greats but he might sneak his way into the HHOF.
