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 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 that are not reflected in a stat sheet.
Last year, the Penguins were unable to make the playoffs, but there were still two elevations based on the previous season. There were no new entrants in the Top 50.
As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes, even though three active players are included.
1. Mario Lemieux
2. Sidney Crosby
3. Evgeni Malkin
4. Jaromir Jagr
5. Kris Letang
You can find the entire list here.
Within the Top Five, Sidney Crosby is closing in on Mario Lemieux, but we feel he hasn’t supplanted him yet. Behind Crosby, Evgeni Malkin held at #3, and Kris Letang remained at #5.
Right Wing Bryan Rust has broken into the top 20. He was previously at #24.
Goalie Tristan Jarry advanced two spots to #30.
Defenseman Marcus Pettersson climbed six spots to #43.
We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.
