As the NHL lockout drags on Sports Talk Florida would like to tease hockey fans with the top 50 NHL players.

Some of these players might not play in the league again if the lockout continues (Teemu Selanne). After looking at all the stats of the Pittsburgh Penguins is playing on a different level than the rest of the NHL. Malkin is in the top 10 in 8 out of 11 categories.

Tampa Bay Lightning Steven Stamkos comes in second on the poll, with Martin St. Louis and Teddy Purcell at 39 and 40. The Florida Panthers did not have a single player ranked in the top 50.
