125. Charlie Simmer

The sniper of the fabled Triple Crown Line, Charlie Simmer scored an impressive 56 goals two seasons in a row for the Los Angeles Kings. Simmer was definitely at his best with L.A., but it wasn’t long before serious injury after serious injury would take their toll. Simmer’s peak would only last a few seasons, and his game fell with each compounding injury. For the Hall to consider Charlie Simmer, they would have to really focus on his peak seasons and a good helping of “what might have been”. Sounds like a lot of other great players on this list.
