HHOF Class 2012
I am happy that Roberts is eligible to be put in. I doubt he will make it in the first time. But I hope he gets in.
Sorry if already posted.
I know this is early, but who do you think is next?
first time eligible
Jeremy Roenick
Mats Sundin
Joe Sakic
Curtis Joseph
Brendan Shanahan
Olaf Kolzig
Teppo Numminen
Markus Naslund
Gary Roberts
Claude Lemieux
Bobby Holik
player from pervious years i think
Trevor Linden
Derian Hatcher
John Leclair
Eric Lindros
Ron Hextall
Mike Vernon
Dave Andreychuk
Pavel Bure
Alex Mogilny
Adam Oates
Brent Sutter
Steve Thomas
Rick Tochet

I think Sakic would be the best bet to get in first try, but there are certainly some great names on that list

Sakic and Shanahan are absolute locks to be in next year. Joseph makes a really good case too.... I'd think that Sundin was the most accomplished of the rest of the first time eligible guys, but who knows?
For the past over guys, I'll put them into three categories:
Should get in, eventually
Dave Andreychuk
Pavel Bure
Alex Mogilny
Might get in, eventually
Eric Lindros
Ron Hextall
Mike Vernon
Adam Oates
No Chance
Trevor Linden
Derian Hatcher
John Leclair
Brent Sutter
Steve Thomas
Rick Tochet
If I were voting, I'd elect either of those top three guys over Sundin.
None of this means anything though (as far as 2012 goes) becuase we all know that your stats can improve over 15 years of retirement, and then they'll put you in
Roberts? I don't know. He never hit either of the 1000 point or 500 goal milestones.... and has 1 Stanley Cup. (Yes, he missed a lot of time with injury). Tough for me to see him getting in..... but you never know? I'd love to see a former Moncton Golden Flames teammate of his get in (one with only 240 career wins, but a Stanley Cup, and Conn Smythe trophy) but I'm not holding my breath for that ;)
