This is the correct take, IMO. The Hamilton sweater is kind of a blight against this (can we unretire that?), but overall, I agree.
And there should be a ring of honour.
My Ring of Honour class:
Ryan Smyth
Doug Weight
Ales Hemsky
Shawn Horcoff
Charlie Huddy
Esa Tikkanen
Bill Ranford
(Eventually Ryan Nugent-Hopkins)
Anyone I'm missing?

Pronger?
|
Longevity and Production are pretty key criteria for me.
For me, I don't think Pronger or Joseph played long enough to be included.
There's a whole clump of what I would consider bubble guys:
Eberle 507 games (382 points)
Simpson 419 GP (365 pts)
Marchant 678 GP (342 pts)
MacTavish 701 GP (331 pts)
Hall 381 GP (328 pts)
Gagner 542 GP (317 pts)
All between 5-9 years with organization, and 15-21 in all-time Oilers points. But none of them really distanced themselves from this bubble, so I don't think I'd include them either. If Hall comes back, he has a good shot at doing so, and I would then include him also.
|
In my opinion, you are diminishing the honor of the ring if you are adding in guys like that. Even Hemsky, Horcoff.
Don't get me wrong, they are all really good players but retired numbers should be reserved for Hall of fame guys. The ring of honor is for guy who are right there but not hall of famers.
