100% deserves to be in the Hall.

3 Jack Adams trophies with 3 different teams in the 1st year with each team.

First year with the Habs: Team finishes with 115 points and goes to the Stanley Cup Finals

First year with the Leafs: Takes over a team with 67 points the year before and leads them one game short of the Stanley Cup Finals

First year with the Bruins: Takes over the worst team in the league (drafted Joe Thornton 1st overall) and the Bruins make the playoffs and remember Thornton was a non-factor his rookie year.

First year with the Devils: Devils win the Cup

His winning Percentage has to be up there at the top in the post-expansion era.

Joe Thornton has been a non-factor his entire career.

PS I agree with Burns going to the HOF

Pat Burns to the HOF ASAP and not because he has cancer.

Over 7000 members now.

Pat Hickey of the Montreal Gazette has jumped on board with an article about the group.

Burns deserves no less than this for all the years of dedication and heart that he put into hockey

[DaneykoIsGod]

Wow. It took about four days to get the first 10,000 suporters. It took less than two days to get more than 15,000 more.

This thing is really picking up steam!

Some more exposure! Looks like the NHL is pushing for this.

[icecop22]

One of the classiest guys I've ever had the pleasure to meet. I sure hope he can be elected into the hall before his time ends

[Amberite]
