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 Pittsburgh Penguins.
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, Pittsburgh missed out on the playoffs, but there were still a pair of new entrants and some elevations.
As always, we present our top five, which saw some changes:
4. Jaromir Jagr
5. Kris Letang
You can find the entire list here.
In the top five, Malkin overtook Jagr for the #3 spot in a reversal of the former Hart Trophy winners. Letang remains at #5.
Center, Jake Guentzel, climbed to #16 from #23 and Right Wing, Bryan Rust, moved to #27 from #31.
The new entries were Defenseman, Brian Dumoulin and Goalie, Tristan Jarry at #37 and #38 respectively.
We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.
