    I dont know if anyone has mentioned this yet, i dont typically read the Off Topic forum, but i figured it should be brought to everyones attention. Cam Neely is being inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame tonight. Many people disagree wtih his induction due to the length of his career (shortened by a hip injury). Being from Boston and clearly speaking with bias, I think this induction is actually overdue. Cam Neely defined the power forward position in hockey, and might have very well been one of the top 3 power forwards to ever play the game. Just curious as to what you all think...

    Cam Neely is not only a great player on the ice, but since his retierment, he has been a great person OFF the ice. He has done countless charity work and even has his own foundation. I say congrats to Cam and I will be watching the induction!

    I loved Cam Neely. What a shame his career was cut short.

    I was never a bruins fan but Cam Neely was awesome and I also think it's long overdue that he is introducted.

    Well I bleed Blue and White so I HAVE to HATE on the Bruins, but anyone that says Cam shouldn't be in the Hall is down right idiotic!!!

    The man has the respect of probably every player to ever play and every Fan that ever watched him play the BEST GAME ON EARTH!!!!!
