Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity. As such, we are very happy to present our post 2022/23 revision of our top 50 Boston Bruins.
As for all of our top 50 players in hockey we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Hockey League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.
Last year, the Boston Bruins set a record with the most Points accumulated by a team, but they were stunned with a first round exit. Based on last season, we see a new entrant to the top five, with a few other fluctuations. There was also one new entrant.
As always, we present our top five, which saw a new number five:
1. Bobby Orr
2. Eddie Shore
3. Ray Bourque
You can find the entire list here.
The now retired Bergeron, who won his record Sixth Frank J. Selke Award last year, moved ahead of Milt Schmidt for the top five.
Three-time postseason All-Star, Brad Marchand, climbed to #11 from #14.
David Pastrnak, who was named a First Team All-Star last year, shot up thirteen places to #18.
David Krejci, who returned for one final season, advanced from #35 to #33.
Defenseman, Charlie McAvoy, is the lone debut. He enters at #36.
