Might as well start electing bantam hockey greats, since they are better players than most Female hockey "stars".
Sorry but I just don't think they belong in the same place as the Men. Somewhat misogynistic I know, but I don't care for women hockey in the slightest, and it just irks me that they are in the Hall of Fame, when some great male hockey players are not (and probably never will be).

Ignoring the sexism of your post you cant seriously be arguing that GREAT male hockey players are missing from the hall. The hall is watered down with a bunch of boarderline entrys as it is.
One change I would mak ewould be to allow the addition of 1 women every fourth year rather then evaluating against NHL players. I would do the same for pre expanion players where we could add one every four years. Then I would cut the men down to two per year and the we could discuss truly great players in the hall rather than good, long careers.
