Jim is joined by Neil Paine, senior writer for FiveThirtyEight, to break down the hall of fame candidacy of former NHL Center Jeremy Roenick. Jim and Neil first discuss Roenick's dominance in the video game "NHL '94" and whether or not Roenick makes video game athlete Mount Rushmore (5:57). Then, they cover Roenick's 1991-1992 season with the Blackhawks, whether game-winning goals matter, and how important winning a Stanley Cup is to a player's HOF case (13:41). Finally, they discuss whether membership in the 500 Goal Club should automatically make you a HOFer (58:54), before reaching a final verdict on whether or not Roenick belongs in the Hockey Hall of Fame (84:37).
