67 points and 77 points the last two years. Impressive given his age.

He did look wiped out during the playoffs though

Does he get in the HOF?

I'm thinking no.

He averaged over 25 goals in his four last seasons between the ages of 36-39 which is amazing. He really hit the wall in the playoffs so props for him for knowing when the end was near and not dragging out his career to the point where he may be a healthy scratch as I hate to see that. The only bad thing I can say about him as said above is that the guy lit up the Flames on far too many occasions.

I have years of trauma built up from Pavelski owning the Flames.

Finally, I can begin the healing process

Yeah not quite, doesn't really have any accolades. Hell of a player though.

He's a better player than Kevin Lowe ever was but sadly probably not.

Tough sell when Pat Verbeek is not in there. Verbeek has over 500 goals and a Stanley Cup. Pavelski didn't get to either of those. They have similar points.

Pavelski was a big part of the Shark's glory years and just crazy consistent. In the Hall of Very Good, I feel like he deserves a spot.

Unbelievable forward with a great career. Too bad he's one of the greats without his name on one of the Cups.

He has to have been one of the most consistent players in a long time. Talk about a high-performing journeymen players who always brought it.

I genuinely dont GAF about the HHOF, but he definitely deserves some recognition.

Just an incredible player and a consummate Professional.

But man did he just feast against the Flames. We padded his stats to an unreasonable degree.

If he gets inducted into the HHOF I expect at least a 'Thank You Flames.'

One of the best 7th round picks ever. Master of the deflection. His game never declined. Sucks he never got that cup

I know of an eighth rounder, who was better….IMO, and won a SC.

Yet, has not yet received HOF status.

Pavelski has the most points of anyone from the 2003 draft class, which is arguably the best draft class ever, so I think there is a solid case for him being in the HOF.
