Future Hockey HOFers?

[earlywynnfan]

Not sure which category this fits in, but I recently bought a large group of hockey signed photos. Before I shuffle them off to ebay, I'm pulling the ones that may be HOFers, but I know little about hockey history. So I was wondering if any hockey fans out there would mind telling me which of the following WILL make the HOF, definitely WON'T make it, or fall into the endless Mattingly/Hodges/Santo grey area? (Do hockey fans argue this stuff as much as we baseball fans??)

Mark Recchi
Paul Kariya
Owen Nolan
Patrick Markeau
Peter Bondra
Teppe Numminen
Felix Potvin
Theo Fluery
Sergei Zubov
Sandis Ozolnish
Wendel Clark
Milan Hejduk
Pierre Turgeon
Jeremy Roenick
Alexei Yashin

Thanks!!

Roenick should get in, maybe Recchi & Marleau. Those are the only potential hall of famers you have listed.

To answer your question, not many people argue stats like baseball. I would agree with the above, but I think Pierre Turgeon as a 500 goal scorer and possibly Theo Fleury are good for it. Problem is hockey probably isn't worth saving for potential future value.

Thanks, guys. Yeah, I'm not keeping these for any huge value, just putting the HOFers in a binder since I have them.

I would say Recchi, Turgeon and Roenick possibly Fleury.

Hockey is a bit looser with the HOF than most sports. I think Roenick, Recchi, and Kariya are pretty solid. Fleury, Nolan and Marleau (esp if the latter scores 500 goals which looks likely) possible, and Clark, Turgeon and Zubov dark horse candidates.
