J.I.A.H.N Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I have asked myself many time who is really is our number one defenseman, who is most important? Obviously I know our top 3, but who does CDC think it is. And further more what is the ranking from 1 to 8? There are many factors...age, Offensive ability, defensive ability, durability, etc, etc....I would like to know what you think! My list would be..... #1.......Tanev.................age, defensive abilities #2.......Edler...................age, Offense, size, defensive abilities #3.......Hamhuis.............defensive abilities, size, leadership, stabilities #4.......Sbisa...................size, age, potential, showing sign of putting together #5.......Bieksa.................leadership, toughness, #6.......Clendening..........potential, age #7.......Weber..................offense #8.......Stanton................dependable #6,7,8 #9.......Corrado...............young potential #10.....Biega...................journeyman played pretty good while up Not sure if I did the poll right, but maybe it will start to show if enough people vote. It's not set up properly, sorry.....any idea's? Revised the Poll and made it a little easy....revote please...it should show us the ratings better, by elimination. Thanks for playing!

thejazz97 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 This doesn't work in a poll format very well... But I'd have to say our rankings are the same. Good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papagrizz Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 stanton has a good plus minus for a reason, he makes smart plays, I think Sbisa is entertaining but sort of overrated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odd. Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 My top 10 ranking of our defenseman: 1. Edler 2. Tanev/Hamhuis 3. Hamhuis/Tanev 4. Clendening* 5. Bieksa 6. Sbisa/Stanton. 7. Stanton/Sbisa 8. Corrado 9. Weber 10. ???? *I have really grown in love with Clendening. He's really calm with the puck and moves the puck extremely well. Easily one of the best younger defenseman we have on our roster. Let's hope Clendening can groom into our top 4 permanently by next season's time. We are still missing our future top 2 d-man.

Master Mind Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 I'd suggest change poll to "who is our top defenseman?" My picks: 1. Edler 2. Hamhuis 3. Tanev 4. Bieksa 5. Sbisa Everyone after that is interchangeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejazz97 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 We are still missing our future top 2 d-man. Better get him this year or next. I feel like elite players will start to die off after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Time Lord Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 In the poll, I just voted for all of the top 6. For this season, I would go with: 1. Edler 2. Hamhuis 3. Tanev 4. Bieksa 5. Sbisa 6. Stanton 7. Weber 8. Clendening 9. Corrado 10. Biega Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuktravella Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 1. edler is our gem of a star dman 2. hamhuis is slowing down due to injuries and his 4.5 mill contract should have him scoring more that zero goals but hes still better than tanev 3. bieska hardnosed hits fights provides more offense than hamhuis 4. tanev good positional, not very physical or offensive id trade him if he wants more than 3.75 let alone 5 thats rumoured 5. clendening mobile good passer offense will come eventually 6. corrado all round decent physical, passing ok chips in goals best all round young dma 7. stanton good plus minus takes bad penalties on occasion 8. sbisa hits like a frieght train. is an adventure sometimes in his zone yikes 9. hutton if he ever plays for us could launch up to 3/4 spot maxing out at a number 2 dman 10. pedan big mean big shot could be a 4-5 dman 11. subban in 2-3 yrs could be our offensive star dman time will tell hope he does well in utica 12. weber not sure why hes on team hes soft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teen Icarus Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Have separate polls. One for #1, one for #2, etc. MY rankings: Edler Tanev Hamhuis Bieksa Clendening Corrado Sbisa Stanton Weber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter_74 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Hamhuis is #1 for me. Edler has flashes of being the top but isnt as consistant as Hammer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Man, it's tough between Hammer, Edler, and Tan Man for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Edler - hope he's just having an off year offensively; when he's on I think he could be like Ryan Suter (similar career p.p.g. average) so he should be the #1 given how he's the sturdy, all-round, minute-munching D-man on this team. For the rest of them this is also my ranking: 2. Tanev/Hamhuis (the gap's getting smaller, but with Chris maturing while Hammer's in his 30's, Tan Man should be the #2 by a slim margin) 3. Clendening* (good puck-moving skills, safe player; hope he fills in the Top-4) 4. Bieksa (just because of his tenure I'd rank him as the top of the 3rd pairing guys) 5. Weber (safe D-man with offensive upside; ranked him above Luca because he doesn't make the same mistakes) 6. Sbisa (higher upside than Stanton) 7. Stanton (solid rookie season, hope he can rediscover his form and become a #5, like a safe Luca Sbisa) 8. Corrado (hope to see the offense) *I have really grown in love with Clendening. He's really calm with the puck and moves the puck extremely well. Easily one of the best younger defenseman we have on our roster. Let's hope Clendening can groom into our top 4 permanently by next season's time. We are still missing our future top 2 d-man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Surfer Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 1) Edler 2) Hamhuis 3) Tanev 4) Bieksa / Clendening 5) Clendening / Bieksa 6) Sbisa 7) Corrado 8) Weber Sorry, could not decide between 4/5. We're deep if not high end... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Grimes Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 We need to keep everybody we have and add a damned powerplay quarterback. It's a shamethe prices were so damn high at the deadline. I don't think Edler is good enough to be a #1 anymore, I think his back is screwed up more than we know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Edler looked terrible without Tanev the last two games. Says a lot to me considering how Edler played last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
