127. Dennis Maruk

As one of the rare players in NHL history who has netted 60 Goals in a season, you would think that Dennis Maruk would have received more recognition in his career.  Actually, he still is.
Andrew Brunette really developed his playmaking skills at the professional level in his two years in Atlanta.  Brunette’s first 20 Goal season was in Atlanta, as was his first 50 Point campaign, of which he would have two for the Thrashers, which incidentally was the number of years he played for the team.

50. Garnet Exelby

Playing for the Atlanta Thrashers for six seasons, Garnet Exelby was a stay-at-home defenseman who exceeded expectations as an eighth round pick.  Exelby wasn’t much of a scorer but did provide 10 Defensive Point Shares over his Thrasher career.

44. Rich Peverley

An Atlanta Thrasher for nearly three seasons, Rich Peverley averaged nearly .70 Points per game while playing for the organization.  Peverley’s best full statistical season in the National Hockey League was in Atlanta where he had 55 Points and his lone 20 Goal season.  He would overall have 127 Points with Atlanta.
