Does top-25 go first ballot HOFer? Is Damphousse in HOF? How long did it take Turgeon to get in?That's a strange way of thinking, using team stats to determine a player value???
What's your cut-off for elite? Top 10? Top 20? Top 25, 30, etc?
Btw Damphousse was 20th in 96 (Turgeon with 18th). Also 21th in 94 and 97. 18th in 90 and 92.
So you're telling me that a player that ended up top 25 in scoring for 6 seasons, including 3 in the top 20, wasn't elite? That's a high bar.
Damphousse was a good player, 1st or 2nd ballot HOF is elite…
Habs Jersey retirements do it right - those are unquestionable elites.
