NHL: The Best Player at Every Jersey Number, #71-80

#71: Evgeni Malkin, Forward

Evgeni Malkin has played for the Pittsburgh Penguins, recording 444 goals and 702 assists for 1,146 points in 981 games.

Malkin has led the league in scoring twice, produced 15 hat tricks, has been an all-star 4 times, and won the 2006/07 Calder Trophy and the Art Ross Trophy twice.

He has also won the 2011/12 Hart Trophy, 2008/09 Conn Smythe Trophy, the 2011/12 Ted Lindsay Award, and is a 3 time Stanley Cup champion. Malkin also registered 67 goals and 109 assists for 176 points in 172 playoff games.

If Malkin played on any other team, he would be one of the biggest stars in the league, however, playing behind Sidney Crosby takes away from what he has accomplished.

Malkin is a force whenever he steps on the ice and makes it known when he is out there. A sure-fire Hall of Famer, there is nothing Malkin has yet to achieve as he has done everything possible in the game.

#72: Sergei Bobrovsky, Goalie

Sergei Bobrovsky has played for the Philadelphia Flyers, Columbus Blue Jackets, and Florida Panthers. Bobrovsky has played in 592 NHL games, compiling a record of 336-187-48 with 37 shutouts, a 2.67 GAA, and a .916 save percentage.

Bobrovsky has also won the Vezina Trophy twice and is a 2-time all-star.

The native of Novokuznetsk, USSR has often gone unnoticed because of the goaltending quality across the league. Bobrovsky has played quite well since coming into the NHL, putting the league on notice when he arrived in Columbus.

He is an under-the-radar goaltender who will always rise to the top and play second fiddle to the elite goaltenders of the NHL.
