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 Los Angeles Kings.
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 Kings made it into the playoffs, but were defeated in the first round by Edmonton. Based on last season, there were changes into the top five, other elevations and one new entry.
As always, we present our top five:
2. Drew Doughty
3. Anze Kopitar
5. Wayne Gretzky
You can find the entire list here.
Doughty climbed to # 2 from $4 and Kopitar advances from #5 to #3, and he could become the franchise scoring leader in the future. Both are primed to overtake Dionne in the next year or so.
Goalie, Jonathan Quick, who is now with the New York Rangers, went to #6 from #7.
Adrian Kempe shot to #38 from #48.
The lone new entry is Defenseman, Matt Roy, who debuts at #50.
We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.
