yea Messier is a lock… i’d love to see Bure get in but he won’t… Al MacInnis, Ron Francis get 2 other votes from me, and Scott Stevens or Steve Larmer get the 4th spot
they were all good choices, glad they all made it in. im actually surprised that mess had to wait on the list for the 2 years though, being second all time in scoring, winning 6 cups, being the only guy in history to captain two different teams to cups… i figured he shoulda went in as soon as he retired
