Hall of fame worthy career. Can't believe how underrated he is. On of the best ever played the game.

The only reason he won’t is that he got his shot too late, then there were two different lockouts and he retired young. His numbers would be even more insane without those lockouts/played a few more seasons/would have become a starter earlier in his career.

@@thefcw Kipper was best goalie in the world 2003-2007. Without that first lockout he would get 2 Vezina trophies for sure.

And the fact that the Flames were pretty mediocre for most of his career. Cup final in 2004, won the division in 2006, but after that they were middle of the pack. Barely squeezing into the playoffs, and then losing in round one. Then starting in 2009, they missed the playoffs for the rest of his career. If he had a better team in front of him, his stats would have been so much better, and he'd be recognized as one of the all time great goaltenders in the NHL, I'm sure of it. @@thefcw

At the time when he was playing, the word on the street was that he wouldn't make the HHOF due to him being a relatively late bloomer career-wise. All of his accomplishments happened after his 27th birthday. I really hope his ballot is considered for entry - there was really no one better than him for a number of years in the league.

@landons2624 I wouldn't say he is charismatic, he looks awkward and nervous. Which is exactly how I would be! lol

It would have been epic if Mikka took to the ice for the warm up. What an awesome goalie, glad he was part of the Flames history!

Congrats Kipper! Well deserved. I am not a Flames fan, but just come to notice... why isn't Theo Fleury up there? He is a Flames legend and was a part of their only Cup winning team.
