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 pre-2021-22 revision of our top 50 New Jersey Devils.
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 NHL.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.
Please note, that this is our first revision, reflective of the last year.
With the Devils being a weak team in 2020-21, very little changed, and the top five remains the same as last year.
4. Patrik Elias
5. Ken Daneyko
You can find the entire list here.
The only change is Kyle Palmieri, inching up one spot to #25. He was traded during the season last year to the New York Islanders.
We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.
