Every week, Hockey Prospectus release their top 10 player rankings based on their GVT metric. For baseball fans, the closest comparison is probably WAR. GVT measures a players value in goals above what a replacement level player would contribute. This week, the Flyers' Jeff Carter came in at No. 10.
↵"Last season it seemed the Carter trade rumors would never stop, but with an 11-year contract signed, Carter looks to be a Flyer for life, an arrangement that so far is working out well. Carter's 173 goals lead all Flyers since the lockout."
↵Daniel Sedin, Steven Stamkos, Sidney Crosby, Ryan Kessler & Brad Richards are their top five skaters.
