Pascal Dupuis Retires
Dec 10, 2015
Published in
Not in Hall of Fame News
Pittsburgh Penguins Left Winger, Pascal Dupuis announced yesterday that due to blood clots in his lung he would be forced to retire from the National Hockey League.
The 36 year old was in his sixteenth season in the NHL, the last half of which was a member of the Pittsburgh Penguins, a team in which he won a Stanley Cup with in 2009. Dupuis would also lead the NHL in Plus/Minus in the 2012/13 season,
Dupuis retires with 409 career Points over 871 Games and was considered by many of his teammates as one the game’s most tenacious players. He entered the NHL undrafted, and clawed his way to a successful career, which he hopes will continue in some capacity, though off of the ice of course with the Penguins.
While he is not going to be a Hall of Fame player, his career was a solid one and it will be honored this year by the Penguins who will be wearing a number 9 decal on their jersey for the season’s duration to honor the now retired player.
We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to thank Pascal Dupuis for his career and wish him the best in his post playing career.

Nile Rodgers talks about the Rock and Roll HOF
Dec 09, 2015

Not in Hall of Fame News
We have been waiting a long time to hear a comment from this man.
In a recent interview in Japan, Rodgers had this to say:
“I honestly, honestly don’t get weird about it. I can’t figure out what the criterion is. It’s actually sort of funny.
If it’s not based on statistics then it’s just an opinion poll deciding this person’s cooler than that person. But if a hall of fame is something that says this person had 20 gold records or influenced this amount of people, I’ve sold more records than almost anyone in there. I’ve written more hit records than almost everybody in the Hall of Fame. Come on, guys!
Most people don’t know I wrote We are Family, or I’m Coming Out – they don’t know that. They just go oh, it’s Sister Sledge, or oh it’s Diana Ross.
When David Bowie walked into my bedroom and played his version of Let’s Dance, it didn’t sound anything like the one everybody knows and loves. It was sort of like a folk song. Most of the things I have done, nobody knows that I did them.”
It is interesting that Rodgers did not speak so much of the band’s accomplishments but rather that of his own. As many of you know, Chic has been nominated for a tenth time, but is their any real reason to think that this will be their breakthrough year?
Rodgers did do everything he said, and most recently collaborated with Daft Punk in “Get Lucky”, an international smash.
Rodgers has been a successful performer, songwriter and producer and would be a candidate for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Award for Musical Excellence (which was won last year by Ringo Starr) which could go to Rodgers, or a performer like Todd Rundgren and/or Brian Eno, who fits into the same category as Rodgers.
At least if they did that, we would probably be spared the annual refusal of the Hall to induct Chic, which lets be honest, is mostly nominated because of Nile Rodgers.

The Pre-Integration Committee selects...nobody
Dec 07, 2015
Published in
Not in Hall of Fame News
We would be lying if we thought that the Pre-Integration Committee was going to select anybody, and well, we weren’t let down.
Specifically, this committee was tasked with choosing players/administrators who had their day in the sun prior to 1947, when the color barrier was finally broken.
To gain induction, a candidate must finish with at least 12 of the 16 votes (75%) from the committee. The highest finisher was Doc Adams with 10. Historically speaking, Adams has been uncovered as one of the father’s of the modern game and many of his innovations are still used today.
Former players, Bill Dahlen and Harry Stovey each received eight votes. This is especially notable for Dahlen, as he received ten on the last Pre-Integration vote three years ago.
The rest of the candidates received three votes or less. This includes former Cardinals owner, Sam Breadon, Pitcher, Wes Ferrell, former Cincinnati Reds President, August Hermann, Shortstop, Marty Marion, First Basemen, Frank McCormick, former St. Louis Brown Stockings owner, Chris von der Ahe and Pitcher, Bucky Walters.
When a candidate receives three or less, the exact tally is not disclosed.
An excellent commentary on this year’s group of candidates was done by our own DDT, which you can find here. It is definitely worth your time to read.
With that over, attention is heating up on a ballot led by Ken Griffey Jr., who many feel will enter on his first attempt.
