NHL Number 51

To find the top skaters in NHL history that wore a particular number we must first look to the Hall of Fame to see which of the enshrined have played with this particular number. As of 2022 there have not been any players in the NHL & WHL Number 51s that have been enshrined.

That takes us to the selection of the 15 Greatest Players to have worn the Number 51 with a list of the top players that as of January 1, 2022 have worn the number in the NHL or WHL on game days.
