Sports Central / Original Sports Fan Commentary Since 1998

When I asked the question, "who is your current favorite player, excluding goalties" a while back, no one mentioned a defenseman, so I guess we need a separate thread for that!

My favorite d-man is definitely Al MacInnis of the St. Louis Blues.... his slap shot is WICKED... he's a Stanley Cup champion (1989)... he has a lot of "experience" ("old," in other words!

), but still is among the leaders in ice time per game!... it's a tragedy he had to wait until 1999 or something like that to win the Norris Trophy as the league's most valuable defenseman, because he's always been a steady player.

Who is everyone elses' CURRENT defenseman, and don't say "Ray Bourque," 'cuz he's gonzo!!!!!!

Probably Chris Pronger or Brian Leetch.

Yeah, I'd have to go for Chris Pronger or Scott Stevens, Derek Morris is up there for me as well.
