Postmedia continues its annual profiles of the new Hockey Hall of Fame class as induction night approaches Nov. 10, with defenceman Duncan Keith.

HALL CALL EXPLAINED

Six players and two builders were nominated this year, each receiving a 75% vote or higher from the 18 members of the selection committee in a secret ballot. A maximum of six players (four male and two female) can be chosen and two builders, unless someone is named from the referee/linesman category.

WHY DUNCAN IS IN

A pillar of three Stanley Cup teams with the Chicago Blackhawks, Keith was effective everywhere he was deployed, hence his two Norris Trophies to go with his many team accomplishments. He won the 2025 Conn Smythe Trophy in 2015, the most recent time the Hawks were NHL champions.
