Top 10 defensemen

[Flynn84]

Post your lists.

Personally interested, if Sergachyov will show up in any of the lists or is it too early (or will always be like that because he not of that caliber)
I heard a lot of good things about him this season

Hughes, Makar, Fox make up the top 3. Then a combination of Miro, Morrissey, Werenski, Josi would be on my list. Probably forgetting someone (its 7am). Theres also Hedman, Weegar, McAvoy, Bouchard, Dahlin. But as a sens fan ill throw Chabots name into the mix, not saying hes a top 10 defensemen but hes been incredible this season and is top 10 in various metrics among defensemen league wide

Better than Sanderson?

 

[Rowlet]

This year I'd go with something like this, but the 5-10 is basically interchangeable, and I'm sure I'm forgetting people:

Hughes
Makar
-
Werenski
Fox
-
Morrissey
Hedman
Heiskanen
Dahlin
Josi
Theodore

Better than Sanderson?

At this present moment yes. A major factor is Sanderson being paired up with Hamonic due to Zub being hurt.

 

[Snuggs]

C'mon... Chabot...

Like, isn't Moritz Seider better than him (at the least, as good), and no one's suggesting Seider be on a top 10 list? What the heck.

Hughes
Makar
-
Werenski
Fox
-
Morrissey
Hedman
Heiskanen
Dahlin
Josi
Theodore

That's a good group there, pretty tough to argue any.

I would have Seider literally at #11, along with Carlson, Sanheim, Faber, Dobson rounding out the top 15.

I said in my post that im not saying hes a top 10 defensemen, he would have to play like he has for at least the entire season. Even then, he'd have to do it again next season. Just pointing out the fact that he is top 10 in various metrics among defensemen league wide.

Werenski is great, for sure, but does one outlier season put him in the top 3-5? I don't think so. Solid top 10 though

 

[Hollowmoon]

Makar
Hughes

Heiskanen
Morrissey
Fox
Josi
Werenski

McAvoy
Theodore
Dahlin

This year he is miles ahead of Sanderson.

Ide take Morrisey, Hedman , Weegar over Fox all day long.
Chabot wouldn't be in my top 20

And thats fair, 30 games of great play is a short sample size.

Evidence that Fox is getting underrated

 

[Czechboy]

The wings fan assure everyone that the top 3 will soon be seider, edvinsson and ASP. Just change the name from Norris trophy to Lidstrom trophy because it will be in Motown for a decade at least.

has he scored yet this year?
hows his team doing ?

 

[NyQuil]

This year he is miles ahead of Sanderson.

Whoever is playing with Nick Jensen ends up looking good in Ottawa.

He's really the most valuable piece on the blueline this season, but he's not a flashy point getter.
