NHL October 2011 Player Rankings

Who were the best players in the NHL in the month of October on a per game basis? Using a rather simple metric that is mostly points per game but also includes +/- and shots on goal, I have ranked the top 500 NHL skaters this month. Phil Kessel was the best player in October. The only criteria for inclusion, you must have played at least 5 games and registered at least 1 point. Big surprises on the positive side are Jason Pominville, Tyler Seguin, Kris Versteeg, Milan Michalek, and Nugent Hopkins all cracking the top 30. The number on the far right margin is the calculated metric which is a modified Z-Score.
