Is Eric Lindros A Hall of Famer?


Eric Lindros officially retired today and the big question, is he a hall of famer or not?

He should be a HoFer. The statistics are there. 865 points in 760 games are hall of fame worthy statistics. Sure you can argue that he didn't have any longevity and he didn't put up with expectations at time. He had a very solid career considering the hype despite not putting up Gretzky like numbers.

The longevity factor is a legit argument in the MLB HoF which has a lot harder restrictions to be honest. If Lindros doesn't get in, Neely doesn't either. Lindros doesn't lower the standard at all.

Eric was an excellent player. I already knew that he's built a great career , but I got very impressed when I watched this video today with his career stats about games, goals, assists and points http://www.weshow.com/us/p/23209/eric_lindros_retires_from_nhl. Did you know that he scored almost 1000 points? His retirement is a pity, we will miss his talent in NHL.
