Key Players Who Have Been Denied the Hall of Fame

[@watcher6935]

Fleury not in makes me sad when I think about about Gary getting in.

[@harrykane9593]

Mogilny was the first non-North American to lead the league in goals scored (along with Teemu Selänne from Finland), the first Russian and non-North American to be an NHL captain

[@raj2007ca]

mogilny didnt always show up. He would play the whole game be quiet all of a sudden ge ta breakaway and score. The guy showed up in sports for liek 1 min an dthat was it

[@yoholmes273]

MOGINLY all day everyday. FULL STOP.

[@Sheep13ny]

When talking hall of fame a lot of the time I like to use the argument, "can you tell the history of the game without this player" if yes, then no hall of fame. For example, Alexander Mogilny, you can't tell the history of the game without him because he paved the way for Russians to come over.

[@111oooo]

Do you think Paul Henderson should be in?

[@ericwill2133]

That's actually really clever and I can't argue against that line of thinking.

[@Sheep13ny]

Id argue yes, you cant tell the story of the 1970s decade of hockey without him

[@loganreifsnider3182]

Agreed 👍

[@thetowerofivory]

Do you think Sean Avery should be in? Peter Pocklington?

[@dawudcharlton]

Thero Fluery is my favorite player of that era, he was a fiesty small guy. I'm a small guy. Him trying to put on a fans team autographed jeresey cuz his was bloody is a awesome hockey moment

[@sebastianpatriksson7814]

sorry for being late but do you happen to have a video of it?

[@helmedon]

Chris Osgood should be in the HOF. It wasn't simply the teams he played with. One could say the same about Grant Fuhr. Curtis Joseph played on really stacked Red Wings teams yet didn't win. You still have to make the stops. Osgood was the model of consistency. He won in 2 eras in Detroit. As a 25 year old, then as a 35 year old. He breached marks not many goalies have. 401 wins, 3 Stanley Cups (2 as starter and one game away from back to back Cups). 2X All Star, 2X Jennings trophy winner, finished in top 10 of Vezina Trophy 3 times, topped 30 victories 6 times over 18 seasons and recorded 50 shutouts with a 2.49 GA and a .905 save percentage. Ozzy played on a lot of crappy Wings teams too, as well as Islanders and Blues with little drop in stats. He's one of only 6 goalies to score a goal directly in the opponent's net (at the time only the 2nd). Last goalie to wear a player's helmet/cage combo mask. Post season alone he helped the Islanders break a 7 year playoff drought and overall has 74 post season victories, a .916 save percentage, 2.09 goals-against average and 15 shutouts. In 2008 he won 9 games in a row to secure another Stanley Cup. Back to back shutouts in the first 2 games of the finals and finished with a 14-4 record with 1.55 GAA and a Cup. Osgood is - 10th All Time in wins by an NHL goaltender 8th in all time playoff wins 4th in all time playoff shutouts 4th all time NHL leader in win percentage 10th goaltender in NHL history to reach 400 wins 3 x Stanley Cup champion (2 as starter) 3 x All Star selection (played 2, one as starter) Led NHL in wins 1996 Led NHL in GAA in 2008 (regular season 2.09 & playoffs 1.55) 744 NHL games played 129 NHL playoff games played 15 NHL playoff shutouts 110 NHL postseason games played with Red Wings (team record for goalies) 16 career NHL points, 4 in playoffs 67 NHL playoff wins for Detroit 14,145 shots against with Red Wings regular season 12,801 saves regular season with Red Wings

[@MMGJ10]

Great stats list, even though I'm 2 years late. Lol. I agree. Osgood deserves to be in the Hall. As a Pens fan i watched him play awesome in his mid/late 30's against us in 08 and 09. His regular season play those years was subpar, but he stepped it up massively in those 2 playoffs. That used to be called a money goalie. Lol. Ozzie isn't Roy or Hasek, but no one is. He absolutely belongs. I also think Cujo and Vernon, belong, but Ozzie needs in first. Edit: lol. His regular season in 07-08 wasn't subpar at all like i remembered, but he still stepped it up even more in those playoffs. 1.55 gaa, and a 930 sv% Insane numbers for sure.

Whiskey Mike says aboot time far a beauty my guy

[@inmanchristopher78]

JR definitely deserves to be in the Hall of fame. He was one of the greatest American players to be on the ice and an inspiration for other Americans. I grew up watching him and he was an exciting player on a very good early 90's Blackhawks team.

[@chevelle1]

Substance abuse issues should not have any bearing on HOF.

[@TomssP642]

Yeah, cause dont kid yourselves, there are guys in the hall who weren't crystal clear by a long shot. Belfour is just one example that Shannon mentioned. I remember when as a Florida player, he got violent with police officers whili super drunk, then offered them a bribe, some craziness. Either that or it was all a fake story, but I don't think so. And stuff that guys in 50s, 60s, 70s did, yeah, right, super clean. And Fleury doesn't get in because of how open he has been about the abuse and addictions he went through?

[@scsmith4604]

@@TomssP642 The bribe was a Billion Dollars. That is why no one thinks it was a real story but it was. I agree with your view on Fleury. There could be someone in the Hall that could be implicated if he is allowed to talk and it is probably common knowledge.

[@scsmith4604]

I was at a game in St. Louis at the old Arena and saw Theo Fleury score a hat trick against the Blues and every goal was shorthanded. What a great player he was and should definitely be in the Hall. The issue with the Hall in my opinion is the lack of understanding on the voting process, who is close, who is not close, etc. Baseball and Football for all of their issues at least get this part correct.

[@Ducksauce33]

Shannon I seen a video of yours awhile back and it was about generational players and franchise players. I was wondering if you still consider Oveckin a franchise player after the last season or so to think about it? The video was from awhile back so it may of been from when you didn't have much faith in him winning a cup.

[@rockstarskinnys3370]

Ovechkin is a generational player

[@rockstarskinnys3370]

7 Rocket Richards is a generational thing

[@skateordiedev]

I would think if Shannon considered Malkin to be generational back then, Ovechkin should be in the same category now.

[@rockstarskinnys3370]

If 7 Rocket Richards isn't generational I don't what is. All young goal players look at Ovi like Gretzky 2.0.

[@DeathByTheFox]

Ovi is definitely generational player.

[@ryanbranigan231]

I really hope Henrik Lundqvist doesn't appear on a future list. Even without lord Stanley he should be there.

[@Sekerps]

Ryan Branigan i don't think you have to worry

[@patch8376]

With the league at 31 teams, soon to be 32, elite players retiring having never won a cup has and will become more of a reality compared to previous generations and in future generations going cup-less won't be the mark against a player's HOF consideration that it is now.

[@doaftheloaf]

if henrik doesn't get in, that's a grave injustice. same goes for luongo.

[@Moda-pf8wt]

He has to be in. I'm no Rangers fan, but that guy would have won a Stanley Cup already if the team in front of him didn't disappear.

[@topher1614]

alfredsson is the 51st all time scorer in the NHL and 2nd in scoring by a Swede all time (only behind sundin because he played more games). he's the best Ottawa senator of all time and one of the best leaders on and off of the ice the fact that he hasn't made it into the hall of fame is insane to me

[@JeffCfreeradiorevolution]

Guy Carbonneau was the best defensive forward of his generation (ask a guy named Wayne Gretzky). He won 3 cups and was a face-off master. He should definitely be in there with Mogilny, Alfredsson, Fleury, Roenick... I would also put Turgeon, Damphousse, Tkachuck and even Brind'Amour in too... but Gary Bettmen though... He's the best ever! ;D

[@pvhep4036]

Serious ?! Is Guy "Selke" Carbonneau not in there?! What a disgrace! Cuz, he was too defensive... which brings you those damn cups... But that's how it apparently goes...

I ended up looking through Turgeon's draft class, and I noticed something. MAN what a draft the Canadiens made that year! Andrew Cassels at #17, John LeClair at #33, Eric Desjardins at #38 and Mathieu Schneider at #44. Between them, they played way over 4K NHL games.

[@v4v819]

No Busts. But No HOF's neither!

[@midimusicforever]

@@v4v819 Leclair is borderline HoF material tho.

[@jahmanoog461]

This topic will always have interest. Magilny is an eventual, Turgeon is typical--what do you want out of the guy? Top fifty in scoring. I remember watching him play, a consistent force on the ice, disruptive on defense and dangerous on O, as his numbers show, numbers recorded playing NHL hockey. Not nice? He was there to win, not to be nice, he wasn't a dirty player. . The NHL should honor his warrior spirit that is part of every hockey player. Osgood has good case too. Goalies are SO important, and get such little respect. Yeah, look at the team in front of him, the team that needed consistently solid, and at times spectacularly timely saves, to win those games, keep them in a game. All those forgotten saves. You the voice of hockey fans everywhere.

[@Coneydog7]

Fantastic video THG. I learned a lot about players whose names I knew, but nothing else about.

[@MegaIndecisive]

In my opinion, Mogilny, Roenick, Osgood, Barrasso, Fleury, Turgeon, Tkachuk, Joseph, Vanbiesbrouck, Hadfield, and possibly Thomas, should be in. It's criminal how few goaltenders make it into the hall of fame. I was glad to see Wilson and Alfredsson get in.

[@Sekerps]

[@mendelsonja]

At some point I suspect Doug Wilson will get in, possibly as a GM (particularly if the Sharks can get over the hump). Look at his resume: GM since the 03-04 (2nd longest tenure) season, team made the playoffs 14 of 15 seasons since he took over, despite only having 4 top-10 overall picks in the 16 drafts he's been GM for (#6, #8, #9x2). For much of that time the team was a contender, not just a team that barely eked out a playoff spot. He's pulled off some fantastic trades and managed to bring a team that's "window was closing" around 2012 and have them reach the final in 2016 and a strong contender in 2019. I would say that he likely only gets in if the Sharks get a cup, but what he's done with the franchise has been pretty amazing.

[@ryanbrown3309]

That is weird that JR isn't in the HOF. He is arguably one of the top 3 American born players of all time.

[@continentalrcinglg]

This is why the Hockey Hall should start up a Veterans Committee, like the Baseball Hall. If Bob Gainey is in the Hall for winning a bunch of Selkes, Guy Carbonneau should be in there, too (since we're talking Selkes, Rod Brind'Amour should be in there, too).

[@pristineview]

Mogilny 100% should be in.

[@trheim91]

[@philipcoggins9512]

Pierre Turgeon deserves to be there. The four up top deserve to be there. CuJo, Osgood, Vernon, Hextall, and Barrasso all derserve to be there. I wonder how much sitting on the bench at Piestany hurts Trugeon, which might also deserve its own video, maybe around the time of the WJC.

"Madness without a magnet" nice :D

[@jacobeberhardt1649]

You're right we would love to see Peter Bondra in the hall. And you're also right in that it probably won't happen.

[@helmedon]

Alfredsson should be in. He only played a couple years in Detroit, but in only that time i could see how good he was. And we didn't have him in his prime. Dude, players don't get to decide where they retire if they still want to play and the team isn't willing to continue paying them. Can't all be Steve Yzerman or Nick Lidstrom.

[@smithryansmith]

Hey hockey guy, I don't know where is the best place to make suggestions for ideas but here's one. Looking at the old Norris trophy winners it would be interesting if you took a look at the "evolution" of nhl awards and how they have changed. Like how the Norris went from best defensive defenceman to best offensive defenceman. or how the selke changed to best two-way forward. etc

[@georgewyatt2924]

Great Analysis. Perhaps if you added the factor of the agents of the players you might find an interesting correlation. Some agents are better at talking up their guys and getting them in front of the camera than others.

[@MMGJ10]

A little weird how no one had Guy Carbonneau as a snub, but he gets in. Zubov I've felt belongs but understood why he wasn't, and why he's considered s bubble guy. But Zubov getting in was a shock over Mogilny, Alfredsson, and a couple of those goalies too.

[@UncleTravelingMatty]

I like your thought process and agree with you. Many players have earned their stripes and have not been inducted due to the voting process and past negative publicity. I would vote the top 4 in and then some. The fans that watched them know how much they earned it.

[@BrettHornby]

Time to get Theoren Fleury in. He's got the numbers, awards and all-star games. Also the way he played as a smaller forward when there was more clutching and grabbing. Yes he had off ice issues but the story has been out on the likely causes from being sexually abused in his junior career. Glen Anderson had off ice issues and he's in, time for Theoren Fleury to get his due plus retire his number with the Calgary Flames.

[@answeris4217]

I like Claude Lemieux but come on. He doesn't have the body of work to be there. He was great in the playoffs and I would have loved to have ten of him come playoff time or in must win games. He was clutch but not hall of fame worthy. I think he had some key roles in a few Roy ring seasons too.

[@jimbrown7922]

Gabriel Matte Not to mention he was a piece of crap.

[@answeris4217]

Jim Brown - I don't remember many of his team mates ever calling him that. The guy was dirty but he wasn't the type of player where it was much of an issue unless he really didn't like you.

[@answeris4217]

Joe Schmo - If you where a fan of a team Lemieux played for you wouldn't be saying that kind of smack. He was a guy that got under your skin and did dirty things to dirty players. In the playoffs he was a different player.He got 4 cups with 3 teams. Twice he lead the league in playoff goals on the way to win it. He has a Conn Smythe because he earned. He is the prototypical guy that you love playing with and hated to play against.

Great video. You covered just about every player that comes to mind when talking about snubs, but I believe Sergei Zubov is another! He may not have won a Norris bury I don't care. 2 cups with 2 different teams. The 94 Rangers he was they're reg season leading scorer and very valuable in their cup run. He was an amazingly smooth defenseman, great skater, solid two way player, fantastic pp player and passer. A very consistently great defenseman. When my Pens traded him to Dallas for half washed up Hatcher, I was the only guy in Pittsburgh that thought the trade was terrible. He clashed as a pp quarterback with Lemieux and "didn't shoot enough" so he was run out of town. BIG mistake. After a year we traded Hatcher for something named Peter Popovic. Ffs

[@MMGJ10]

Oh, and Zubov went to a much more defensive team in Dallas after leaving Pittsburgh. Had he stayed in Pittsburgh he may have scored 1000 points. His numbers plummeted in Hitchcocks tight system but his all around play improved.

Alfredsson didn't rebuild the Senators he was better than Yashin when Yashin left. Alfredsson was the franchise player in Ottawa pretty much as soon as he stepped on the ice. He became a legend when he took scored a hat trick in the playoffs and took over that series. He will eventually get in the hall because of the Messier award. No doubt Alfedsson was one of the premiere leaders in the league.

There are a lot of goalies who are probably worthy of being in the Hall but the fact that a lot of them never won cups is a huge reason why.

It's the hockey HOF, not the human HOF. Guys like Fleury, Roenick, and yes, even Damphousse belong.

[@TomssP642]

What did Damphousse do wrong? Honest curious question?

[@jackfredricks6223]

Tom Barrasso was a Saber when he won the Vezina. Separate thought, is not waving the normal 3-year wait a "snub" for Jagr?

[@Parttous]

I nominate The Hockey Guy to the Hall of Fame!

[@will-eh3qt]

I get your sentiment about Marty St Louis, but there are few Rangers fans I know who didn’t love Marty when he was a Blueshirt

[@kylekelly7850]

That vintage Colorado jersey tho...

[@joshmakeshift]

Mike Vernon will get in. He carried the wings in 97....edit..i honestly thought he was already in...

[@BenjaminDHarrison]

I think mogilny and roenick are tops, but I seem to recall you saying Mark Recchi isn't in either. Doesn't he have over 1500 points? On personality do you think that roenick and fleury aren't in because they spoke badly of/poorly represented THE game? Idk, I didn't see either play much, but it could be felt that they besmirched hockey and so went ever get in

[@jacobkelley7762]

the guy that started the punch up and the only Canadian that refused to fight during the punch up.....

[@gdeyell9471]

I know this vid is mainly about non-goalies....but I hate the Pens, but Barrasso should be in. . Calder . 1 Vezina . three (3) times 2nd place Vezina . one (1) 3rd place Vezina . one (1) time 7th place Vezina . one (1) 9th place Vezina . three (3) times top 10 Hart trophy votes (plus an 10th place finish) I know "only" one Vezina, but the amount of top-5 and top-10 votes has to count for something

[@TheShinyFeraligatr]

Tom Barrasso was definitely not playing for the Penguins in 1984, he got traded to them not all that long before the cup runs.

[@chrisscorpio5651]

If Alfredson stayed as a Senator, he may be in the Hall. People tend to like those stories, and give players more of the benefit.

[@nates9029]

So I'm still a little shocked that Mogilny and Joseph aren't in the Hall of Fame. I'll admit I'm a little bias but do you think Peter Bondra should be in the Hall of Fame? I'm open to the argument but he was a great player. Didn't win a Cup but had a great career.

[@wilnerolivier7971]

Nate S You can't put Cujo in ahead of Mike Richter. Even though Cujo had his moments in the playoffs, Richter won the Cup & was great in international play.

[@michaelream2146]

Peter bondra should be in. 500 goals in any era is great, 32 sh goals. Bondra should be there.

[@nates9029]

Wilner Olivier - How many wins does Richter have? I think he has about 100 less than Joseph. Yeah, Richter won the Cup but Joseph was a great player for a number of years. Richter was great for a couple of years. As The Hockey Guy pointed out, Tom Barrasso isn't in the Hall and he won a Vezina and TWO Cups. I think Barrasso should be in, then Joseph and then Richter. I'm still trying to understand how Mogilny and Roenick aren't in. I think Peter Bondra should be in too but Mogilny and Roenick should DEFINITELY be in. Alfredsson will be in probably next year.

[@wilnerolivier7971]

Nate S Unfortunately Richter's career ended early because of concussions, he influenced a lot of goalies that are currently playing in the NHL from Quick, Howard(Who I'm not a fan of) & Rinne who honored him by wearing #35. Everybody remembers Messier's called shot in 94, but if wasn't for the strong play of Richter after allowing the second goal then Rangers season would've in disappointment & they would still be searching for their first Cup in almost 80 years.

[@ryanbranigan231]

Way to discount The Beezer's outstanding play as a ranger...

[@shanearnold7781]

There IS an Art Ross winner who isn’t in the Hall: Herb Cain in 1944 who shattered the record for points in a season

[@30AndHatingIt]

It's pretty messed up everyone talks about Sellane's 76 goal season and forgets Mogilny matched that goal total exactly the same year but it gets ignored. Why, because he technically wasn't a rookie that year? Pretty disgusting.
