Hockey Hall picks 5

Defensemen Scott Niedermayer and Chris Chelios, along with forward Brendan Shanahan, will be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. They’ll be joined in the class of 2013 by Geraldine Heaney, the third woman to be enshrined in the hall, and coach Fred Shero, who led the Philadelphia Flyers to the Stanley Cup in 1974 and ’75. He was selected posthumously in the builder category. Chelios and Niedermayer earned hockey’s biggest individual honor in their first year of eligibility. Shanahan was a teammate of Chelios’ in Detroit, and played with Niedermayer during the Olympics in 2002 when Canada won gold. –AP
