If you ask the fans of the Ottawa Senators, you already know the answer to this question. Alexei Yashin may have spurned the fans of Canada’s capital, but even they would agree that the Russian was a talented skill player. Now playing in Russia, Yashin had over 750 points in the NHL and probably could have hit the four-digit mark had he chosen to play more in North America (and not sit out a season in his prime due to a contract dispute).

Should Alexei Yashin be in the Hall of Fame?

Definitely put him in! - 15.4%
