by Adam GretzFiled under: Capitals, NHL Fans, NHL VideosFanHouse's Adam Gretz takes a look at his top 50 players in the NHL. No. 26 is Washington Capitals defenseman Mike Green.The inclusion of Sergei Gonchar in the top-30 ignited quite a debate and plenty of disagreement, and I'm expecting an equal amount at the placement of Washington's Mike Green. A couple of weeks ago, I asked if we would ever see another NHL defenseman hit the century mark in a single season, and came to the conclusion that Green is the only player with a legitimate chance. He not only led all defensemen in scoring this past season, he obliterated the competition, leading Andrei Markov, the No. 2 defenseman, by nine points, despite playing in 10 fewer games. That all has to be worth something. Right?
