26. Rasmus Dahlin

In 2018, Rasmus Dahlin became the second Swedish player (after Mats Sundin) to be drafted number one, and thus far for the Buffalo Sabres, it has proven to be a good match.

An excellent two-way Defenseman, Dahlin was an All-Rookie player in 2018/19, scoring 44 Points, which he followed up with 40 the year after.  Dahlin dipped to 23 Points in 2020-21 in the COVID-shortened year, but he found his touch again in 2021-22, scoring 53 Points, and going to his first All-Star Game.

In 2022/23, Dahlin broke out with 73 Points and a +12, and again was an All-Star.  Dahlin also earned Norris Trophy votes for the first time, finishing eighth, and he broke 50 Points again last year.

Should Dahlin stay with Buffalo, this man should be a top five player.

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

4. Phil Esposito

5. Patrice Bergeron

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.

In an article on The Players Tribune, Place Kicker, Robbie Gould announced his retirement from professional football

Playing his college ball at Penn State, Gould first played professionally for the Chicago Bears for eleven seasons (2005-15), where in 2006, he was a First Team All-Pro and Pro Bowler.  After a year with the New York Giants, Gould signed with the San Francisco 49ers, where he played until 2022.

Gould is in the top ten in Points (1,961), Field Goals (447) and Field Goal Percentage (86.4)

Gould is unlikely to get into the Pro Football Hall of Fame (he is eligible in 2028), but should be on every preliminary list over his 20 years of eligibility.

We here at Notinhllloffame.com would like to wish Robbie Gould the best in his post-playing career.
