It is time to determine this year's Hall of Fame Inductees.
I would ask every GM in the league to rank the following players from 1-10, with 1 being the top player for Hall of Fame induction and 10 being the least deserving of the honor. Once everyone has posted their list, we will then review it and choose the top three players to go in this year.
Here are the players to be voted on:
Jason Allison
Reg. season (354 GP, 114 G, 240 A, 354 P) [.910 PPG, 13.44% Sht%, -5]
Playoffs (36 GP, 8 G, 19 A, 27 P) [.750 PPG, 10.00% Sht%, -2]
Jason Allison's career spanned 5 NHA seasons, starting with the Avangard Omsk but spending 4 years with the Calgary Hitmen.
With 354 points in 389 career NHA games, Allison is still one of the highest-scoring retired players.
Was less of a factor in the post-season, with a significant drop off in production during the playoffs.
Sports a career +/- of -5 and a -2 in the playoffs.
