Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we maintain and update our existing Top 50 lists annually.  As such, we are delighted to present our post-2024/25 revision of our top 50 Nashville Predators.

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 that are not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Predators had a bad season, failing to make the postseason.  Nevertheless, there were two elevations and one new entrant.

As always, we present our top five, which saw one change. 

1. Roman Josi
2. Shea Weber
3. Pekka Rinne
4. Filip Forsberg
5. Juuse Saros

You can find the entire list here.

Roman Josi was already #1 and padded his lead over everyone else, and Filip Forsberg also remained at #4.

Goalie Juuse Saros climbed into the top five.  He was previously ranked at #7.

Colton Sissons, who is now with Vegas, reached #31 from #33.

Alexandre Carrier, who was traded during last season to Montreal, went up one spot to #38.

As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2023-24 revision of our top 50 Nashville Predators.

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Predators looked to be dead in the water.  However, they made the playoffs after going into trade mode, though they were dispatched in the first round.  Based on last season, there was one new entrant and two elevations.

As always, we present our top five, which saw some significant changes:

1. Roman Josi
2. Shea Weber
3. Pekka Rinne
4. Filip Forsberg
5. David Legwand

You can find the entire list here.

Josi was at the top of the list when last season started, and after a third-place Norris finish, he extended the gap between himself and number two.

The change in the top five came from Center Filip Forsberg who went up one spot from #5 to #4.

Goalie Juuse Saros, who was a top-five finisher in Vezina voting, advanced to #7 from #14.

The lone new entrant was Defenseman Alexandre Carrier, who debuts at #42.

We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

A lockdown Defenseman, Alexandre Carrier began his career with Nashville, where his blocking and clearing ability were assets to the Predators.

A physical player can be used when needed, and Carrier could be used on offense, especially on power play.  Carrier has twice scored 20 Points, was an All-Rookie player in 2021-22, and had 69 Points and a +25 Plus/Minus before he was traded to the Montreal Canadiens during the 2024/25 Season.
