![]() Date: Wednesday, May 22, 2024 Time: 5:30 pm EST Hosted by: @AgentSmith630 Due to inaccuracies in determining eligible players before the Season 67 ballot, ALL players who started their eligibility in Season 66 or before (The last season played must be between S57 - S64) will receive one extra season of eligibility. This means the S66 1st Season Eligible players will be eligible through S73 instead of S72, and all those who started their eligibility before S67 will be eligible for one extra season, assuming they were still eligible at that time. The players with an extra season of eligibility have been marked with an asterisk ( * ). This is the final season for those with extra eligibility. Players with eligibility starting in S67 and after will retain their original 7 seasons of eligibility. The eligibility years listed will not change aside from allowing 8 seasons of eligibility for the classes before S67. After the Ceremony for S73, the maximum number of eligible seasons will return to 7. S73 Eligible Players: Hugh Jazz - Final Year * Jed Mosley Jr - Final Year * Jimmy Slothface - Final Year * Joorgustraad DuBolk - Final Year * Joseph Fantobens - Final Year * Jst Maro - Final Year * Leo Bloomfield - Final Year * Luc-Pierre Lespineau-Lebrunette - Final Year * Luke Thomason - Final Year * Mathias Seger - Final Year * Nick Brain - Final Year * Oliver Cleary - Final Year * Patric Twist - Final Year * Reid Sutherland - Final Year * Rocco Berni - Final Year * Rotticus Scott - Final Year * Sachimo Zoidberg III - Final Year * Samat Beibitzhanov - Final Year * Satoshi Zizagooney - Final Year * Alex Marshall - Final Year Alexander Oscarsson - Final Year Alexander Roach - Final Year Aumy Jr - Final Year Bjorn Thornsen - Final Year Bobby Lane - Final Year Cal Labovitch - Final Year Daniel Laforest - Final Year Daud Ramza - Final Year Disisde Dayudie - Final Year Eko van Otter - Final Year Evangelos Giannopoulos - Final Year Granny PanPan - Final Year Guy LeGrande - Final Year Jack Kanoff - Final Year James Kimanje - Final Year Jon Forty-One - Final Year Juni Panda - Final Year Justin Keahi - Final Year Karlstrasse Scholz - Final Year Kaspars Claude - Final Year Luffy Richard - Final Year Lyle Odelein III - Final Year Mika Kandinsky - Final Year Simon Takshak - Final Year Slap McShotty - Final Year TURG TURG - Final Year Tyler Ward - Final Year Vincent Mietitore - Final Year Zayne Rotzbua - Final Year Zelma Zuntnere - Final Year Ambacas Cuddles - 6th Year Arsene Leclerc - 6th Year Bobby Sharp - 6th Year Daniel Merica Jr - 6th Year Daniil Nikiforov - 6th Year Hugo Gronroos - 6th Year Joseph Weston - 6th Year Keith Lee - 6th Year Kyle Sutton - 6th Year Kynwyl Pearce - 6th Year Lassi Suhonen - 6th Year Leonids Balzams - 6th Year Luca Del Vecchio - 6th Year Maxwell Carrigan - 6th Year Michael Fitted - 6th Year Patrick Shepherd - 6th Year Ruggs McOoooh - 6th Year Ruslan Zaporozhets - 6th Year Slava Petrov - 6th Year Tanjiro Kamado - 6th Year Zdenko Beranek - 6th Year Aleksandrs Balcers - 5th Year Alex Petrenko - 5th Year Alexander Wachter - 5th Year Aron Hernadivic - 5th Year Bas O'Bigbers - 5th Year Bjorn Leppanen - 5th Year Bork Lazer - 5th Year Conner Hutton - 5th Year Damien Vertigo - 5th Year Dane von Gucci - 5th Year Danny C - 5th Year Eric Hudson - 5th Year Esa Parmborg - 5th Year Jack Klompus - 5th Year James Ronlain - 5th Year Karl Krashwagen - 5th Year Name Redacted - 5th Year Nathan Thomas - 5th Year Nicolae Antonescu - 5th Year Ren-Ekelemchi Shimizu-Okoli - 5th Year Ric Charlesworth - 5th Year Stan Q.

Hi! I'm pushing the ceremony back to 6:00pm EST!
![]() HOF Committee Hall of Fame Head Good evening, and welcome to the Season 73 SHL Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony!
To start tonight, I would like to remind everyone of the voting rules, and some changes that we've made to help accommodate for some mistakes and errors that were made in the past with regards to eligibility and who was on the ballots. Each member of the committee (10 people in all) nominates 5 retired athletes from the list of eligible players and ranks them 1 through 5, which in turn gives these players points according to their rank (10 points for 1st, 7 for 2nd, 5 for 3rd, 3 for 4th and 1 point for 5th). Each committee member must also provide a short written piece to back up their choices. These points are then totaled and all players who receive 35 points or more are selected to be inducted into the Hall of Fame. For GMs, committee members are allowed to place 2 votes, with 1st being 10 points and 2nd being 5, and a GM must receive at least 65 points to be inducted into the Hall of Fame Additionally, due to inaccuracies in determining eligible players before the Season 67 ballot, ALL players who STARTED their eligibility between Season 59 and Season 66 (The last season played must be between S57 - S64) will receive one (1) extra season of eligibility. This means the S66 1st Season Eligible players will be eligible through S73 instead of S72, and all those who started their eligibility before S67 will be eligible for one extra season, assuming they were still eligible at that time. The players with an extra season of eligibility have been marked with an asterisk ( * ) in the eligibility list. This was the final season for those with extra eligibility. Players with eligibility starting in S67 and after will retain the original seven (7) seasons of eligibility. The eligibility years listed will not change aside from allowing eight (8) seasons of eligibility for the classes before S67. After the Ceremony for S73, the maximum number of eligible seasons will return to seven (7). Before we get to celebrate those who made it, let’s take a chance to recognize those who graced our ballots for the final time this season. Because we actually have 2 classes where this was their final season, this list is extra long. Fifty(!) players were on the ballot for the final time during Season 73 who unfortunately did not garner enough votes to be inducted into the SHL Hall of Fame.

Our first inductee this evening made a name for himself by being a rock-solid starter in the net for many seasons, and his efforts were rewarded with an incredible 4 All-SHL team nominations and 5 award wins. Two playoff MVP wins in two cup victories show that he was a star in the playoffs as well as the regular season, and he'll be entering the Hall of Fame with one of the highest winning percentages, GAA, and SOs in the postseason. Please join me in congratulating . . .
![]() HOF Committee Hall of Fame Head ![]() ![]() Cillian Kavanagh @takethehorizon ![]() ![]() Career Regular Season Stats: GP: 738 | W: 356 | L: 310 | OTL: 39 | Min: 42,077 | SO: 53 | SV%: 0.908 | GAA: 3.213 Career Playoff Stats: GP: 115 | W: 62 | L: 43 | OTL: 8 | Min: 6.830 | SO: 9 | SV%: 0.917 | GAA: 2.688 Awards: 2x 3rd Team All-SHL 2x 2nd Team All-SHL 2x John McBride Nominee 2x Anton Razov Winner 3x Mike Honcho Winner 2x Challenge Cup Champion (S59, S62) ![]() ![]() Committee Quotes: “Has 4 All-SHL team nominations, which is the most out of any eligible goalie, has 5 awards won (3 Honchos and 2 Razov) which is most out of any eligible HoFer. Has the most shutouts out of any eligible goalie with 53, has the best save percentage at .910 and a couple of cups and additional award nominations.” “4 All-SHL noms is outstanding, and 5 award wins is almost unheard of. Didn't win a McBride, but two nominations is also very good, and he hit the 350 win milestone, which for me is the threshold for long-term impact in net” “Two playoff MVP wins in two cup victories makes him a major part of the league's history on top of a highly decorated goaltender. Also a three-time Honcho winner to go along with 4 All-SHL awards and a stats profile that make him a worthy addition to the Hall of Fame.” “2 Razovs, 3 Honchos, and two McBride nominations. Cillian Kavanagh was an era-defining player for the Texas Renegades following a trade from the San Francisco Pride. You can't ask for more from a goaltender.” “Kavanagh has 4 All-SHL appearances, a whopping FIVE award wins with two additional nominations, and extensive playoff experience where he truly shined. His winning percentage, GAA, and SOs in the postseason would all be among the highest in the Hall.” ![]() HOF Committee Hall of Fame Head
Our second inductee is one of those often seen protecting the net but without the extra pads of a goalkeeper. In just ten seasons, this player racked up over 2000 Shots Blocked, not only easily making him one of the top defensive defensemen in league history, but likely his goalie's best friend! His other accolades can't be ignored either, winning 3 Bojos and a Stevens for his heroic efforts on the blue line. Please join me in welcoming . . .

![]() Career Regular Season Stats: GP: 660 | G: 78 | A: 255 | P: 333 | +/-: -20 | Hits: 763 | SB: 2045 Career Playoff Stats: GP: 64 | G: 6 | A: 14 | P: 20 | +/-: -22 | Hits: 59 | SB: 217 Awards: 1x 3rd Team All-SHL 1x 2nd Team All-SHL 1x Bojo Biscuit Nominee 2x Scott Stevens Nominee 3x Bojo Biscuit Winner 1x Scott Stevens Winner ![]() Committee Quotes: “Eero Makela was one of the most dominant defensive defensemen in league history, with blocked shots and Biscuits by the bucket full. Add in a Stevens win and another two nominations and Makela stands out as an elite defensive presence for a decade on the Calgary blueline.” “Won 3 Bojos and a Stevens, having more awards won (4) than any other eligible skater, has over 2,000 career shots blocked which was all compiled in a short 10 career season being the strongest defensive defenseman on this ballot.” “One of the best defensive defensemen to play the game, and the only one eligible to win both the Bojo and the Stevens. I don't think people appreciate how much of an accomplishment that is to do, and he won the Bojo three times with an additional nom, and the Stevens once with two more nominations. While his career was short, it was a display of excellence pretty much every season.” “Eero is easily the most decorated eligible skater on the ballot, with 3 nominations on top of his 4 wins (three Bojos, one Stevens) in ten short seasons. Though he never managed a cup, Makela racked up well over 2000 blocks, excelled on the PK, and had an impressive TA/GA ratio that's well over the HoF average.” ![]() HOF Committee Hall of Fame Head
Our third inductee tonight is another defensive defenseman who spent more time protecting his goalie than trying to score. He spent all but the final season of his relatively short career (only 11 seasons) playing for a struggling San Francisco Pride, but that didn't stop him from making his presence known through 3 consecutive nominations for the Stevens and 2 wins of the Biscuit. Please join me in welcoming our next inductee . . .
![]() HOF Committee Hall of Fame Head ![]() ![]() Rikard Bjerg @AgentSmith630 ![]() ![]() Career Regular Season Stats: GP: 725 | G: 80 | A: 264 | P: 344 | +/-: -14 | Hits: 1410 | SB: 1589 Career Playoff Stats: GP: 97 | G: 7 | A: 26 | P: 33 | +/-: -25 | Hits: 197 | SB: 263 Awards: 2x 2nd Team All-SHL 3x Scott Stevens Nominee 2x Bojo Biscuit Nominee 2x Bojo Biscuit Winner ![]() ![]() Committee Quotes: “A defensive defenseman specialist who should get some more recognition. Was a Bojo specialist, winning the award twice and being nominated another two times, and 3 times for the Stevens (with 5 total award nominations tied for most amongst eligible HoFers). In a short 11-season career also put up over 1,400 hits and over 1,500 shots blocked which are similar numbers to other longer-tenured hall of fame defensemen.” “Bjerg is a defensive defenseman with 7 whopping defense-oriented award nominations, two of which turned into Bojo Biscuit wins over a relatively short career. He has an absolutely absurd TA/GA ratio sitting at 2.36, and still managed to put up a pretty spectacular amount of points especially considering his role, as well as amassing defensive numbers resembling much longer tenured D men.” “Bjerg, like Makela, was also a dominant defensive defenseman, picking up two Bojo Biscuits and multiple additional nominations for the Biscuit and Stevens. Had the type of career that shows a primarily defense-first guy can achieve the hardware deserving of a spot in the Hall of Fame.” “Rikard Bjerg had a rather short career in the SHL, but they left an imprint with 3 consecutive Stevens nominations and a further 2 Biscuit wins and another 2 Biscuit nominations. The four season stretch from S63 to S66 proves to be one of the most productive peaks of any physical, stay-at-home defensemen in league history.” ![]() HOF Committee Hall of Fame Head
Our final inductee is another player who managed to shine while playing for a team struggling through a rebuild. A defensive-oriented center who spent more time worried about protecting his defense than scoring, this player's efforts were rewarded with 3 Dar nominations and a win. While his success on the ice was never quite reflected by team success, the Hall of Fame would like to welcome our final inductee . . .

Winning a Dar with 3 additional Dar nominations is a huge mark of success, along with his 1200+ blocks as a forward.” “3 nominations and 1 Jeff Dar win, and so unsurprisingly a checking and shot-blocking machine. Even as he tallied 700+ points, the defensive zone was where HLO truly shined. He was a huge piece of SFP's PK in both ends of the ice, and finished with a TA/GA ratio that would be third best among all forwards in the HoF.” ![]() HOF Committee Hall of Fame Head This concludes the Season 73 Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony!
See you soon for Season 74! |
