    I was prepared to argue today that Hedman does in fact still belong in the top 10 but I didn’t want this, please be nice to him he didn’t ask to be used in this rage bait like this

    Also Darren Raddysh snubbed

  2. billyspectacles

    Gotta be one of the worst of these types of lists I’ve seen.

  3. reggiebobby

    What metric are they using here? Lol this list is way off.

  4. Forsling is such a flash in the pan. Having him at 6 is wild.

  5. Showtime98

    Fox at 8 is crazy lol, top 3-5 max. He is in my top 3.

  6. wildlyintangible

    Hanifin being top 20 is hilarious given that he was MAYBE Calgary’s third best dman last season and other years past. Yet, Ras and Weegar aren’t even on this list.

  7. -TheNew11-

    Ahhhh yes, Red Wings young gun Mortiz Seider

  8. kingkellam

    Fox is a top 3 defenseman in this league, come on.

    Bouchard in the top 10 is insane. Dude puts up points because McDrai constantly feeds him them but he’s really not great defensively

  10. Slice_Of_Life_DM

    Reminder that these lists are only made to drive engagement

  11. It’s pretty crazy that Erik Karlsson won the Norris in 2023 and now he isn’t even in the top 20. I’d go as far as to say he was still pretty damn good this year with Pittsburgh, much fewer points but still a top-pair D

    >Dobson at 15

    A little low but I like

    >Toews at 10

    Pain

  13. Hedman is my favourite blueliner of all time and I still think he’s an elite blueliner, but the last days Hedman was top 3 were in 2022

  14. BillyNoMates12

    Obvious bias will come through here but I do think Cale is the best Dman in the league. He isn’t just offense. He can play defense very well. Fox not being top 3 is laughable though

    Forsling has to be the most overrated player in the NHL now.

    He’s not better than Adam Fox. Dumb list.

  16. Bruins01

    Forsling speed running from most underrated to most overrated

  17. topbuttsteak

    Foxy any lower than 3 is absolutely bonkers

  18. moebuttermaker

    Dougie Hamilton way too low. Hedman way too high at this point in his career. Noah Hanifin makes the list impossible to take seriously.

  19. dangertom69

    This list is absolutely garbage. In a single year Forsling went from underrated to…whatever this is.

  20. TildeGunderson

    Forsling at 6 is nuts. I love him and he’s great, but compared to others, he’s in the 11-20, easy. Swapping him for Dahlin’s an easy choice, and even at 11, I’m not sure I’d put him above Slavin or Morrissey.

    Also, Fox at 8? Sure thing, bud.
