What if the voters induct Pierre Turgeon and Dale Hunter in the same year as a sick joke? I don't think they'll do it. Hunter did visit Turgeon in the hospital though to apologize.
Do you have a source for this? I'm not doubting it, but it seems....off. Especially in the playoffs. I'd never heard this before.What if the voters induct Pierre Turgeon and Dale Hunter in the same year as a sick joke? I don't think they'll do it.

Turgeon 92-93 season is arguably the best single season of the 4 guys. In the playoffs he lead the Islanders past the juggernaut Pens.
He didn't play that series. 1993 NHL Patrick Division Finals: NYI vs. PIT | Hockey-Reference.com.
He only played game 7 and had 0 points.
Janney had 120 points in like 120 games and he was even softer then Turgeon. Sometimes soft guys rack up points.
Regardless I wouldn't put him in the HHOF. Was never impressed with him.
My bad. Assumed he played, damn how the hell did the Islanders win I'll never know.

This is sort of how I feel. You don't necessarily need post-season awards if you have other League-best attributes (leadership, consistency, defensive acumen), but what else does Turgeon have besides almost-but-not-quite-elite offence?His practically no post season nominations keep Turgeon out for me. He also was never, ever considered to be a top 10 in the league at any time.
500+ goals, 1300+ points, 1200+ games, 1.00+ ppg, was +149 in +/-
was almost a point per game player in the play-offs
Ok, how many games did you watch Turgeon play?
a handful.... still. you can't make those stats disappear either
many player gotten to the HHOF over the years only because of their statistics
And like previously said by others before me, several less of a players what Turgeon are HHOF's.
His practically no post season nominations keep Turgeon out for me.
He sat on the bench in Piestany.
What a coward. He should be ashamed of himself.
I don’t care how soft you are... when every last man comes off both benches - you do too. ESPECIALLY when wearing your country’s colors.
I don’t think that’s really the entire reason, but he’s a rodent in my book.
If the rest of his team had followed his example they likely would've been gold medalists instead of kicked out of the tournament
Personally, I applaud him for not getting involved
He's a hockey player, not a brawler
And why does it matter if you're representing your country?

The same can be said for all of those players.He's a hockey player, not a brawler
