I'm gonna go against my usual methods and vote for the man who was just added, Brian Leetch. The main reason for this is because we haven't had a defenseman on the list since Denis Potvin at #28. We need more defensemen. :P.

He won two Norris Trophies, the Conn Smythe Trophy, and played in 10 All-Star Games.

He had a mind-blowing 102 points in 1991-92 with 22 goals and 80 assists.

All in all, he had seven seasons with more than 70 points, which is amazing for a defender. Among those were five with 20+ goals.

He is still 8th all-time in points among defenders with 1,028 points. The next closest active player is Sergei Gonchar, way back with 748 points.

In the 1994 playoffs, Leetch was a monster, scoring an incredible 34 points in 23 games.

For the fourth time, I'm nominating Bernie "Boom Boom" Geoffrion. A highly underrated star of the 50's and 60's, Geoffrion on was more than just a "good player" in his era.

He was the 2nd player in history to score 50 goals in a season when he did it in 1960-61. His number was retired by the Canadiens (a very high standard) in 2006 just after he died.

Mogilny_full.jpg

Alex Mogilny, One of the best in Russian Hockey History.

He had a career that was greatly hampered by injuries, he only played more than 70 Games 5 Times in his 16 Year Career, but when he played he amazing.

His career is highlighted by the incredible 76 Goal, 127 Point season he had in 92/93. He also had another 55 Goal 107 Point season in 95/96 when he played here in Vancouver.

He ended his career with 1032 Points in 990 Games, which just proves he was that good even through the injury troubles.
