I agree 100% with everything you say. Obviously you have to be a pretty good player. But if you could somehow go for 20 years, you can really rack up the points.

So should Gordie Howe be there?

Kessel's already on 4. If he gets to 15, will you admit he's half decent?

I can imagine the uproar if Kessel kept this pace for 15 more years and didn't get in.

Are you saying Sundin got in because he played in Vancouver at the end of his career?

I guess Vantel was right....

Nope, Mike Gartner is Phil Kessel

His Nordiques contributions were what put him over the top.

so Kessel's contribution in Boston will put him over the top?

Plus, to be fair, he has a term used in hockey named after him. Although that would mean Ryan Kesser may have to go in now.

Gartner goals per game: 0.494413

Howe goals per game: 0.45331

so Kessel's contribution in Boston will put him over the top?
- Symba007

Symba, shut up. He never played for the Bruins. That trade never happened. He was a Leafs draft pick. 4th round i believe?

so Kessel's contribution in Boston will put him over the top?
- Symba007

i suppose this depends on how you define "contribution"

Gartner goals per game: 0.494413

Howe goals per game: 0.45331

Really?

You want to keep going with this?

You must be more bored than I am.

Kessel never really contributed to Boston.

Your move, Symba.

I think you can pick an easier target than one of the 6 players in NHL history to break 700 goals for someone who doesn't deserve to be in the Hall.

Name him.

Other than Joey Mullen, of course. I'm not happy with that one, either.
