Eleven Posted June 21, 2023 Report Posted June 21, 2023 Does anyone know what time and whether it is televised? And Mogilny better make it this time. 1 Quote

Eleven Posted June 21, 2023 Author Report Posted June 21, 2023 Mogilny left out again. Why is he not considered worthy? Quote
The Jokeman Posted June 21, 2023 Report Posted June 21, 2023 Just now, Eleven said: Mogilny left out again. Why is he not considered worthy? Probably because Fedorov and Bure were better. I personally think Mogilny should be in because he opened things up for others to leave Russia, was above average etc. but who knows maybe some in the committee have ill feelings towards him *shrugs* 1 Quote
That Aud Smell Posted June 21, 2023 Report Posted June 21, 2023 It is absurd that Pete Turgeon is getting into the HHOF but Mogilny is not. Maybe Mogilny suffers this year because of a generalized anti-Russian sentiment? 4 Quote

Did you ever watch Mogilny at his peak? He was unstoppable. I even think Federov said Mogilny was better in an interview. Mike Vernon? Tom Barrasso? They should not be in over Mogilny. Thought Turgeon might be blackballed over “ Punch Up” fiasco. Edited June 21, 2023 by DHawerchuk10 1 Quote

Could that be part of the reason that - many years later - someone just horrendously cheap shotted Turgeon after a scored goal, IIRC? Quote

I still remember the 76 goal season and how excited it was getting his autograph that same year. Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted June 22, 2023 Report Posted June 22, 2023 We should be celebrating two former Sabres are entering the Hall. Quote
Marvin Posted June 22, 2023 Report Posted June 22, 2023 Tom Barrasso gets in for back-stopping the Pens to 2 Cups. He was better after being traded. IMHO, that was because he did not play against Boston as often. Quote

IMHO, that was because he did not play against Boston as often. Getting away from the Bruins likely helped, but IMHO the reason his play improved so markedly after moving to Pittsburgh is because of his daughter's health issues and how they made a "changed man" of him. 1 Quote
Rasmus_ Posted June 22, 2023 Report Posted June 22, 2023 It's ridiculous that year in year out he gets bypassed. He is a surefire hall of fame player. His points speak for themselves, as do his all star appearances, Stanley Cup win. How in the blue hell is Mike Vernon a hall of fame goalie? Quote
