it baffles me that he isn't in there already..........and i think the fact that the HOF didn't put him in before he passed away is one of the worst decisions they have ever, or will ever make.

the man has 500wins, 1 cup, another trip to the finals, and 3 jack adams..........there are many people far less derserving, who are already in the HOF.

he spent his entire career coaching teams that i despised, and yet I always respected him a great deal and felt he was one of the best in the business.

Yes. Give the man what he deserves! I don't know any fans who don't want this.

Should have been in 3+ years ago. If even as a respect before he passed. The man deserved it.

The Hall of Fame is a friggin joke

Partly for the some of the players that they are putting in it, (just good, not great) and mostly for decisions like not inducting Pat Burns when he was still alive

F*ck the Hall of Fame

It is an outrage that he wasn't put into the hall of fame while he was still there to enjoy it. He had an aura about him that made him different then just the average coach, he was special. On paper, there's really not too much more he could have accomplished. Put him in there already!

yup.

Mackenzie should read that article in full when Burns is inducted.

why he isn't already inducted can't be explained.
