Our All-Time Top 50 Anaheim Ducks have been revised to reflect the 2022/23 Season
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 Anaheim Ducks.
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, Anaheim failed to make the playoffs, but we still have two new entrants and four new elevations.
As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:
2. Ryan Getzlaf
3. Paul Kariya
4. Corey Perry
You can find the entire list here.
Veteran Defenseman, Cam Fowler, advanced one spot to #6.
Goalie, John Gibson, broke into the top ten, moving from 12 to #9.
Forward, Adam Henrique, went to #27 from #37.
Center, Trevor Zegras, makes his first appearance at #41. Subsequently, Kevin Shattenkirk, who has since left the Ducks enters at #46.
We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.
46. Kevin Shattenkirk
A ten-year veteran and a Stanley Cup Champion with Tampa Bay Lightning the year before he signed a three-year deal with the Anaheim Ducks, Kevin Shattenkirk brought the Ducks exactly what they signed him for, veteran leadership and defensive depth.
In the three seasons he played in SoCal, Shattenkirk scored 77 Points, with his best being the second year, where he had 35 Points. He left for the Boston Bruins in 2023.
