Perhaps, according to one member of the Hockey Hall of Fame selection committee, it shouldn’t have taken Doug Wilson or Kevin Lowe two decades or more to be bestowed the sp. . .
“Kevin Lowe was a great defender, an elite defender, was (on the) first defense pairing, played against all of the other teams’ top lines, still had decent numbers, and people are saying, ‘Well he doesn’t have the numbers to be there.’ Well, he’s a much better defender than any of those guys with big point totals,” Burke said.
