[Angry Little Elf]

Pretty simple.

Wow, look at all the great defenceman we've had.

 

[Vancouver Canucks*]

Ballard.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

That I actually got to watch, I would say Lumme. Hat tip to Ohlund.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

I didn't see the option for Rome so I voted Ohlund.

 

[iamtherunner]

Lumme?

 

[CherryToke]

Larionov had the best season.. but thats not enough, so Lumme.

 

[y2kcanucks]

No Lumme? No Kearns? No Reinhart? No Snepsts?

 

[kmad]

Why's Murzyn on there?

top 5:

Ohlund
Lumme
Hamhuis
Lidster
Edler

 

[RewBicks]

Lumme belongs on this list, rook, although I'd put Ohlund ahead of him.

 

[JA]

Lumme should at least be an option. In fact, he could very well challenge for best Canuck defenseman of all time; it's him and Ohlund for me. Snepts should be on the list as well.

 

[NYVanfan]

No Lumme? No Kearns? No Reinhart? No Snepsts?

May even throw in a nod for lidster or brown

 

[Dado]

What, no Garth Butcher or Michel Petit?

 

[Love]

No Brent Sopel?

 

[Dado]

No Brent Sopel?

The dude has his name on the cup...

 

[Barney Gumble]

The dude has his name on the cup...

Same as ex-Canuck 1st round pick J. J. Daigneault

 

[Shanaban]

I'd vote for Lidster or Ohlund personally.

 

[JayBeautiful]

Larionov had the best season.. but thats not enough, so Lumme.

Larionov? what?

Pretty simple.

Murzyn is on the list and no Reinhart, Lidster, Snepsts or Lumme

 

[Yammer]

Paul Reinhart and Jeff Brown were great in short stints. Jyrki Lumme was not as great, but very good, over a period of some years

 

[David Bruce Banner]

No Lumme? No Kearns? No Reinhart? No Snepsts?

No Kearns. **{shudder}}

Murzyn should be no where near this list either, for that matter.

Lidster, Babych, McCarthy and Lanz should at least make the long list.

Reinhart was the best defenceman I ever saw wear a Canucks uniform. Unfortunately, he didn't last long enough.

Ohlund got my vote. Man, with 2 working eyes, he could really have been something.

 

[Free Edler]

Reinhart was probably the best defenceman to play for the Canucks but I don't think he was here long enough to make a real case to be the best evar. My money's still on Ohlund but I'm biased, he's my favourite player.

 

[Royal Canuck]

Going off the board with Lumme.

(quiz asking for the name of every defenseman who's ever played a RS game for the canucks, in 20 minutes)

 

[cotillion]

+1 Lumme

 

[Fat Tony]

Lumme. Ohlund was another Canuck that was affected by an eye injury. Otherwise, he'd be the clear cut number 1 all-time.
