Luke Hughes lol

Just curious. How is Leo Carlsson on this list and Bedard isn't? Isn't it ridiculous to label rookies as future Hall of famers?

If Quinn Hughes, Miro Heiskinen are there, Dahlin should be as well.

If Mark Stone is there, Jack Eichel and Alex Pietrangelo should be.

Lol, Luke Hughes / Leo Carlsson. Why no Bedard ?

Brayden Point is closer to HOF than Hughes, Hischer, Aho and Barkov

Personally, I would have waited until his 15th game, at least

They had to name someone from ducks…

(Not my list).

Aho, Hischier, and Carlsson but no Pettersson doesn’t really make sense

I think discussing anyone with under 10 years in league is a bit silly…it’s their article

NO JESPER BRATT?!…lousy, lousy nhlfan

Carlsson and Hischier but no Pettersson makes zero sense

They have to know what team that player will be on next year…

I'm sure Knights fans would love to get him out of the division but considering Garland already pulled his trade request I wouldn't expect Pettersson to go anywhere

There are a lot of guys on here who will go on to have jersey numbers retired, but I see very few surefire hall of famers on this list.

Unless you're a truly special player at a young age, I'm not at all interested in HOF conversations until a player is in their 30s.

Off the top of my head, here's my list of active NHLers who are 100% HOF guys one day. In no Particular order

McDavid
Crosby
Karlsson
Perry
Stamkos
Malkin
Kucherov
Vasilevsky
Matthews
Hedman
Fleury
Kopitar
Draisaitl
Makar
Ovechkin

Might be missing a couple of obvious ones, but pretty much anyone else is marginal/ not ready to be in that conversation/ will get in when they're old.

I’d agree with all those guys. My ballot:

Jack Hughes
Patrik Elias
John Maclean
Jesper Bratt
Nico Hischier
Ken Daneyko
Dougie Hamilton
Freddy Hamiton
Timo Meier
Luke Hughes
Kyle Palmieri
Brian Rafalski
Tyler Toffoli
Yegor Sharangovich
Alexander Mogilny
Taylor Hall
Jonas Siegenthaler
Martin Broduer (for a 2nd time)
Jim Hughes
Brian Gionta
Stephan Gionta
Damon Severson
Bobby Holik
Ondrej Palat
Ellen Hughes
Randy McKay
Tom Fitzgerald
Ilya Kovalchuk
John Marino
Adam Henrique
Zach Parise
Scott Gomez
Jason Arnott

Just kidding. I wouldn’t vote for Kovalchuk.

Jesper Boqvist
Alex Holtz
Fabian Zetterlund
Erik Haula snubbed imo

Scott Gomez can go in, but only if he's inducted as an Ottawa Senator

No Fox?
Been at least a Norris runner-up 2 of the last 3 years, and won it at 23.

Wait, Scott Gomez played for Ottawa?

Your missing Brent Burns and Jonathan Quick and maybe Drew Doughty

Not a active NHL player but Rod Brind'Amor deserves to be in the hall

Two guys who won Norris trophies they didn't deserve

I know this will be controversial, but I just can’t consider Pavelski a hall of famer

Scoring 29 goals for a defenseman is a very impressive and rare feat (only 2 people have done that since the turn of the millennium)... Burns deserved that Norris. According to Hockey Reference, the 6 guys who have the closest career to Burns in terms of career quality and length are all in the hall of fame

Karlsson had 82 points in 82 games in 15/16 and lost the Norris to Doughty because Karlsson wasn't good enough defensively. In 16/17 Karlsson was the best player in the League not named Crosby or McDavid, and was 2nd in the league in blocked shots, only to lose it to a forward playing D who scored a lot of goals despite being worse defensively than Karlsson has ever been.


This is my hill, and I will die mad atop it.

Agree to disagree my friend
