Henderson is rightfully not ever to be in the HHOF for the same reason that Mike Eruzione will also never be inducted. Henderson is remembered IN THIS COUNTRY because he scored an historically important goal in an exhibition-style tournament restricted to participation by only two nations. This is a different type of achievement that warrants a different type of recognition. He was inducted into the Canadian Sports Hall of Fame (1995), and also awarded the Order of Canada (2012)—perfectly sufficient accolades for his legacy here in Canada, but not remotely enough to qualify him for the HHOF.
