Will Fluery get a call to the Hall? He had SOLID numbers for a guy who played at 5'6" and 180 lbs. Pt a game player with over 1800 Pims in 1084 games played. If Cam Neely gets in then surely Fleury is a lock.

1 PPG and 455 career goals should be enough for the HHOF.

Guy was amazing to watch. Quick little pest.

Haha - he was a pest!

I've been watching old videos of Fleury and I keep seeing Lanny McDonald. Had completely forgotten about him.

 

[Virtuoso]

I'm sure he'll get in eventually seeing as there are players in the HOF with worse credentials.

Unfortunately there are. Here are a few that stand out:
Cam Neely - questionable call to the Hall, but if he gets in surely Lindros should get in.
Clark Gillies - not sure what to say here. strange!!
Guy Lapointe - numbers padded by stacked Montreal teams
Ken Dryden - numbers padded by stacked Montreal teams. He wouldn't survive in today's game.
Bill Barber - biggest diver of all times.

 

[FairWarning]

Puckoff - do you think Billy Smith or Grant Fuhr are HOF-worthy? They, like Dryden were the goalies of dynasties. I think all three were major reasons they were winners and not just along for the ride.

 

[PuckOff]

Grant Fuhr's GAA and SAV% numbers are horrendous. He had only 3 +30 win seasons and 1 - 40 win season. Based on those numbers no I don't think he's HHOF worthy. Same thing with Billy Smith. Go compare Martin Brodeur's and Patrick Roy's numbers to those 2 and you'll see what I mean. Heck, go check out Cujo's numbers. He put up some solid numbers, but unfortunately never won the cup.

Fuhr was the best Canadian goalie of his time. But I can piss on a Hall of Fame that doesn't put in Bure at first opportunity. No idea why Cam Neely is in.

Fluery was an excellent player. I wish hockey was not dominated by giant gorillas. Let them play basketball or football. Personally, I could care less about players personal lives.

Bure was far from a l0ck after he retired

 

[reno cool]

By far the best player in the game for a decade,

 

[Blitty]

By far the best player in the game for a decade,

Adam Oates. One of the most underrated players ever.

 

[Virtuoso]

Shame he was ran outta town in Vancouver....would of loved to see him win in 94.

 

[FairWarning]

Bure was by far the best? Hmm, I'll have to ponder that.

Maybe Reno means the best Canuck?

I'm pretty sure Bure played againt Gretzky & Lemieux back then, they were pretty good too!

 

[Matty]

Prolly the most naturally gifted, but the best? Over-the-hill Gretzky was still producing a lot more than Bure.

 

[Matty]

I'm pretty sure Bure played againt Gretzky & Lemieux back then, they were pretty good too!

Lemieux (1990-1996) = 318 GP, 268 G, 656 PTS (0.84 GPG & 2.06 PPG)
Bure (1991-2000) = 513 GP, 325 G, 588 PTS (0.63 GPG & 1.15 PPG)

GAME.
