Dougie is criminally low on this.

no respect for morgan rielly

Ok no Ellis or Spurgeon I see
at least Carlson isn't first

Doesnt deserve the top 15 imo

Maybe top 20

points > actual defense!!! haha. the best defense is a great offense, right?

Why is Ryan Suter on this list? Slavin, Parayko, Hamilton and McAvoy could all move up easily... Klingberg is the only Dallas dman on here but isn't even their best defenseman and had an awful season, so many players could be there instead.

Terrible list, not surprised in the slightest tho

Terrible lists are their bread and butter over at NHLdotcom. My theory is that it's low-key bad just to get people to interact with their articles, but that's def giving them too much credit lol.

100% they do that, always putting out terrible lists to stir conversation but I really don't understand what they gain from it

Clicks and shares. My favorite was those re-drafts on their Instagram. Comical stuff right there. I think they had Binnington above Gibson and Saad above Huberdeau.

Ron Hainsey snubbed

bad list. Werenski leads the NHL in goals for defensemen. McAvoy and Dougie should be higher

sutter isnt even the best on his team

Makar?

Hughes over McAvoy? Maybe offensive production sure, but McAvoy absolutely eats minutes every game and is lockdown

dude, where's makar?
