    I think forum inductee may well be the highest of honors here - putting someone into the DBHF in this category really has to be someone special - quality through and through. IMO of course.

    I guess if I was putting together a tally sheet of attributes that a DBHF Forum Inductee would score high on, they would be: 1. consistent respect for others, 2. peerless analysis, 3. consistently present, 4. nurturing/problem solving, 5. humble.

    I can only think of one forum user who I believe hits the top of each one of those targets (at this time and over time) - his name is Jeff Angus.

    I think there are others close or at least on their way, but this is the name that resonates for me for this year.

    Everyone mentioned already is fabulous, and I would certainly throw my support behind DY or Angus. I'd also throw Praba's name out there for consideration, too.

    I vote Big Ev. Just the right amount of snark and smarts.

    I assumed Angus was already in the DHHF in some other category...he sure as heck should be in there somewhere.

    What about DD himself? Is he in the HF?

    I still feel like a NOOB on this site, I've only really a few multi-month periods where I've been able to join in and comment on items. (I say this because I know there are period where I've not been active where some of the other members have been really valuable contributors).

    Anyways, in the time that I've been on DobberHockey, three of my favourite contributors to general advice in the Keeper/One-Year forums have been:
    *JHM
    *SeaDawg
    *fungchen

    I think each of these have been with DobberHockey for over 3 years... which is probably a good amount of time to have been a part of the community significantly.

    I really think very highly of the help these folk have provided to the NOOBs looking for advice on their fantasy teams.

    As special section contributors:
    *Gates
    *Dean Youngblood

    Two people that have gone "above & beyond" with their articles and coordination of super-helpful fantasy hockey contributions!

    Big thumbs up!

    Ha, as I said earlier, there are SO many forum members that I think are deserving. Its too bad that its only one/year...perhaps inducting two or three per year would be more suiting. Just something to consider. The real HHOF inducts more than one per year.

    Another member that hasn't been mentioned yet but I think it would be absolutely ridiculous not to nominate is Hockeypoolgeek. The amount of time and effort that HPG puts into his posts is incredible and he's been here for three years doing it.

    ahhh shoot I assumed Angus was already in Dobber Hall of Fame. He absolutely has to have his spot.

    I stand by my vote of Dean Youngblood, but somehow someway Angus has to be in there too. I did not realize he was not and or that we could vote for him lol.

    Yeah i thought about that b0ndon - but I also thought about the fact that in some HOF there is no one inducting sometimes in a year.

    I wonder if one thing we are missing here is annual awards besides the DBHOF awards?

    Angus with his great Daily Ramblings, articles and one of my favourite things.... Fantasy Mail Bag!

    JHM because his posts are very informative, explains himself very well and that it just seems like he takes his pots very serious and you can tell its been though through.

    I'll throw another vote to Angus -- deserved for ramblings, articles, mailbag, etc.

    Two other names to consider (for the future perhaps):
    JHM and hockeypoolgeek

    These are two names that I will often click on and choose "Find all posts by..."
    Both offer ridiculously thorough analysis on almost every post they choose to dive into.
    Points-only, Full Keeper Dynasty League
    Active roster (no starts, just total points): 12 FW, 6 D, 1 Goalie

    Forwards: Kucherov, Barkov, Teravainen, Seguin, Hoffman, Lindholm, Gusev, Horvat, Meier, Perron, Schwartz, Johansen, Pavelski, Buchnevich, Hischier, Granlund, Bracco

    Defense: Josi, Dahlin, Letang, Gostisbehere, Ekman-Larsson, Petry, Slavin, Keith, Matheson

    Goal: Lehner, Holtby, Varlamov

    Farm: Soderstrom, York, Woo, Tracey, Dorofeyev

    That's definitely an idea worth thinking about.

    Would definitely be fun coming up with some creative names for them haha.

    From memory, those awards come around the new year.

    Don't you worry, those will definitely be happening. As for this specific award, great members named so far! Keep the ball rolling.

    May well be GM - I don't remember them if they have happened.
