Were elections held after 2007? I hope the World Wide Hall of Fame will continue.

The exclusion of Boston Bruins Stars, Stalwarts Fleming Mackell, Doug Mohns & Don Mckenney's levels of excellence is akin to rank heresy!!

Mario has never been eligible. He will first be eligible in 2011.

Is Mario not an honoured member or is there something I missed (i.e. eligibility). He was one of a few that could make goalies look foolish and was one of teh top 5 greatest players of all time. His NHL and inetrnational record is fantastic.

Ugh...I take it back. I didn't notice that Foyston made it in your 1978 vote. Sorry. What took you guys so long, though?

You should all be embarrassed for never having cast a single, solitary vote for Frank Foyston, who was easily the second biggest star of the PCHA era behind Cyclone Taylor, and probably the greatest big-game player of the East vs. West Cup era.

You guys have got Moose Johnson in this thing, but not an 8-time PCHA all-star (6 first teams), who was also the MVP of the league (1917), captain of the first American team to win the Cup and a consistently spectacular player in the Stanley Cup finals?! Not a single vote? What gives?

Frantisek Pospisil with his play in the 1970's and especially during an exciting 1-0 win over Canada in the 1976 Canada Cup (the only game they did not score in that tournament), makes him one of the Greatest Defensemen ever in my books.

Certainly Dzurilla played a great game in goal but he also needed great back-checking and a great defensive performance in addition to his own great play in order to shut out the 1976 Canada Cup Team.

This was Bobby Orr's only Major International appearance. Bobby Hull and Guy Lafleur were also on that team.

Winning the Golden Hockey Stick 2 years in a row as the best player in Czechoslovakia in 1971 and 1972 plus the 3-3 Tie against the 1972 - TEAM CANADA and playing a leading role on their World 1976 and 1977 Gold Medal Championship teams made him
the best ever Czech player.

So even though I wanted Canada to not only win, but win in style and hopefully win all the games, you must respect the Czechs as much as the Russians of that era because with Dzurilla, Holocek, Pospisil, Machac, Bubla and Novy and the Stastny's
they were a Great Team.

The only European Team that played something like a Canadian style.
