- Back with some more rankings and today I will be listing my top 10 NHL defensemen. Like my previous ranking videos this is not solely based on just this season. I will be looking at potential, careers so far, and also what they have done over this season and the last 2-3. Comment other ranking videos you would like to see below and let me know if you want a part two to this one. Subscribe to Jimmy Hockey for more NHL News and Breakdowns and NHL 2024 Highlights.

Do you agree with my list, Would you like to see a part 2 ranking 11-20?
Give me 11-20. I want to see what non meat riding, non defensive defenseman think of Slavin
No and no
No
Not even close.
Having Quinn Hughes at #4 is a comically uninformed take 🤣 In his first year as captain he has the Canucks at the top of the league, not to mention he is leading the league in points among defensemen and has one of the best plus/minus stats in the league. Doesn't take much to see that he is at least #2 on this list.
He is one of my favorite players, but I honestly feel he is definitely ranked too low. Has zero weaknesses and is better offensively than 90% of forwards in the league. His leadership is criminally underrated. He is the second best Defenseman in the NHL, and would be an easy #1 if not for what could be the best Defenseman to ever play. Hughes would be number one by a margin if not for Makar. Not a Canucks fan, just calling it how it is!
The issue is he's just now starting to build up consistency. All three players above him are consistently good every single season.
I disagree. His underlying defensive numbers are weak. He is indeed more like a forward. Dont get me wrong, hes a good player. But i believe the rank is proper
@@andrewc6385 I see where you’re coming from, but this list is mostly made up of offensive players. I believe he’s as good defensively as anyone on the list except Herman, miro, Fox or Makar
@@andrewc6385 produce some stats that show that from this season. he's so weak defensively that he is the second best +/- player in the entire league, but yeah what a major liability. the only thing that is liable to happen when he is on the ice is the puck goes into the other team's net and he adds another point to his league-leading total.
at this point it has just become an automatic reaction from morons who clearly watch no canucks hockey and then have nothing to back up their ignorant comments.
"Hughes is my pick to win the Norris" I have him at number 4. The disrespect for Hughes is unbelievable.
Again this is not just for this season, if it were than sure I would say Hughes, but all together for the reasons I listed Hughes is number 4
@@jimmyhockeythat’s a dumb enough take for no one to subscribe .
@@jimmyhockey Honestly, it should be Makar and Hughes at #1 and #2. If you're looking at "potential and careers so far", how did you put Hughes at #4. A few seasons ago when his defensive capabilities were questionable, sure, I would of put him in maybe the top 5 or 10. But he has improved and grew, with a plus/minus of a staggering +33 this year. When he's on the ice, he's a huge factor, more than a #4 spot would. That's just my personal opinion of course. Makar is #1 to me still, as long as he's healthy.
@@marveliciouscombos. Vancouver fan? Hughes is really good but if he’s ranked based on the last few years then his rank at 4 is pretty fair.
no it's not lol. He's #2 at a minimum, and I can make a case for #1. @@plrt6794
Crazy how Karlsson went from 100 points to not even an honorable mention.
Sorry I can’t take you seriously if you don’t have Q Hughes at 2.
I’m not sure which annoys me more. How underrated/under appreciated Josi is, or how overrated/overhyped Fox is.
I think that I actually have Josi higher than most and if you think Fox is overrated you need to go watch some New York games cause he is a stud
@@jimmyhockey
I think you’re also wrong. lol
Fox was and is a petty phuck
@@jimmyhockey watch Hughes play an you will see what carrying the play means
@@jimmyhockeyHe’s top 5 for sure but no one is putting him #3 right now considering the time he missed this year it’s like you want us just to ignore that
The rest don’t matter. Makar, fox, and Hughes in any order.
Cool to see you recongnize Dobson. I honestly was wondering if you'd recognize his outstanding contributions to the Islanders this year. I'm glad you see it. He's looking like the best two way defenseman the Isles have had since HOFer Denis Potvin.
Potvin was a beast he could score and hit i was at the game he scored his last playoff goal in....he beat ron hextall clean. Man I wish the flyers could get a d man half that good.
@@billblake9665 Things are looking up for the Flyers. I really thought they were going to hold onto third last year. Torts is a very good coach, though he does tend to wear out his welcome eventually.
I'll have to check that Potvin last playoff goal game again. Flyers took over for the isles in the east after the Dynasty, had a couple of finals runs ended by the Oilers if I recall.
"defensemen..... love them or hate them?" WTF is that supposed to mean? who hates defensemen? dumbest thing I've heard today and I just watched everything Tortorella said.
Makar and Hughes are easy 1 and 2.
remember not just this season...
Dahlin got the most points on the sabres by some margin. Offensive players are really letting that team down
Agree, I love Dahlin like I said its sort of a hot take but I just want to see him take this team a bit higher each year and it feels like he didn't improve much from last year.
Jacob Slavin is top 10, top 5 even. He’s not an offensive juggernaut, but he is one of the best defenseman in the league.
Top 5 is wild I think he is a 11-20 defenseman
@@jimmyhockey from a strictly impact on the game for his team, his IQ, skating, defensive ability and overall well-roundedness? Name a better defensemen that can do that. His one fault is he is NOT an offensive juggernaut. He won't put up the crazy points, but that's not his role. We're talking about DEFENSEmen. Slavin be savin the Canes.
@@SethstratDevon teows
Lmao you’re comparing Toews to Slavin 🤡
@@jimmyhockeyif you only look at points… I can understand why you think he’d be rated lower. But if you watch his game Slavin is a true defensive defenseman with an incredibly high hockey iq. Highly underrated effort player that makes big plays night in and night out, that’s an easy top 10 imo.
Forsling is MILES ahead of Brandon Montour at this point.
Makes a list of best defenseman proceeds to have a video of them doing nothing but score. Is this a list of best offensive defenseman? You don't even have some of the best defenseman from one of the best defensive teams in Gus Forsling and Brandon Montour.
Missing Slaavin as well. That man is SO good and for not being an offensive defenseman he now leads Canes in all time points for a D man (Not too hard of a feat, lo)
Totally agree about the video highlights only showing scoring. Not one highlight of Quinn Hughes dominating the O-zone for 2 minutes while embarrassing the other team over and over again. LOL
I think an extended version of this video should be made to show the skating quarterbacking abilities of each defensive-men.
Hughes would be #2 on my least easily and gives Makar a run for his money in the #1 spot.
i will always be upset that the flyers drafted nolan patrick his injury problems made me too scared i wanted cale makar so bad.......they threw a number 2 overall pick out the window. Patrick is done its very sad he could play.........but he is cursed ...
makar is unreal........i hope mitchkov stays healthy at least we might finally have a real scorer.....but man.....I knew we should have picked makar...its been rough being a flyers fan this last decade......our defense and goaltending imploded the last 15
games of the season it was a nightmare......and yes i would like to see your 11-20 rankings...
Hughes at 4 is the reason I’m never coming back to this channel
Josi should be higher
Who would you move down?
He's ahead of Heiskanen, Fox and Mcavoy for sure
@@nokkamies4988josi had one good season he's good but fox and McAvoy are easily better
@@aliviachaudhuri1841 nah man 😂
@@aliviachaudhuri1841lol “OnE gOoD SeAsOn”….. lol no…. Just… no…. Josi is EASLIY one of the best Defensmen in the league!
There are two Norris Candidates. Hughes and Makar... they are the best.
How is Quinn Hughes at #4 and Jaccob Slavin not on the list
I love Fox but he’s not Makar level where he can get hurt miss a bunch of games and still be top 3. He’s had 2 70pt seasons he’s good but not that level yet
Kinda crazy that last years Norris winner isn’t even here…
Gustav Forsling robbed
Confirmed Jimmy does not know puck
@@premiumnapping5627 for real though, this list is a complete joke. my own fault for expecting some random nobody off YT to actually know something about the thing they make videos about.
Settle down
Nah great player and having a great year. Top 20 for sure though
+/- of 47
Cale maker gives up over 3 goals per 60 minutes played and contibutes to 4.3 per 60
Fox 1.8 and 4... 1.8 goals against per 60 holy crap this guy is straight insane
Obviously this video is favoring more offensive defensemen who rack up points but I really feel like if we’re talking about players who do their job as DEFENCEmen you gotta bring up Mo Seider atleast as an honorable mention.
Hughes at 4 is comical LOOOL. 0 fucking reason for Heiskanen to be ahead of him. That’s laughable
I like your top 10, but you should check out on Micheal Matheson with the habs. This guy is a BEAST
I think next year there is going to be another hughes on the list........
I absolutely think Doughty should be on the list. No Doubt.
Nice I’ve always argued with idiots online that Fox is Top 3 at least and they would tell me no and say Hughes is better 😂
Horrendous take he def doesn’t watch Quinn. Quinn’s defense was just as good last year. Man only looks at the numbers🧱.
not just defense but also offense to think about but i agree. Hughes should not be 4 but 3 because fox and makar are better. Could make arguements but still.
Hughes offense speaks for itself. I really think hughes is better than fox but makar is number 1. @@_DESTROY_LONELY
Glad to see Heiskanen get his flowers.
Drew Doughty should be on this list. Elite 2 way defenceman
he was once. now he is just an above average used-to-be who will drop off fast from here on out
@@Goats22 hes having one of his best seasons this year
@@wynonasbigbrownbeaver6757 a whole whopping 39 points! WOW!
@@Goats22 15 goals and norris caliber defence
He is having a good year but like I said at the start its not just based on this one season. Doughty is a great two way defenseman but every guy on this list is better offensively and defensively than Doughty. Doughty is still great which is why he is in honorable mentions.
Nhl leader in +/-: not a top ten dman lmaooooooo clownery
OMG OR EVEN HONORABLE MENTION! Hahahhaah
Werenski is on a losing team but deserves recognition.
Pretty fair list. We need a part 2!!! (11-20)
Will do thanks for watching
@@jimmyhockey You should definitely do an 11-20 list for centers and wingers as well!!
Quinn or Makar are 1 and 2, no order.
Quinn Hughes has to be 2 4 is a bit low
Jimmy, I'm impressed with your hockey knowledge, as a show you're special
So I would like to invite you
To a town hall forum from locked on Wild, the show is live interactive and
Last about an hour, sometime in the spring, when things aren't so crazy
My resume,, I'm a host with kfan radio
The home or the Minnesota Wild
I'm looking forward to a reply from you
Only disagreement is I think Hedman isn’t really a top 10 guy anymore/there are much more deserving guys in the league. He’s had enough mid seasons but now, and per analytics his defensive numbers are terrible this year.
solid list, however i think any of these guys aside makar can be switched a couple spots up or down and it would still look like a good list
really i think as long as you keep makar and fox at the top you can be pretty loose with the top 7-8 and it will still look good. makar and fox are just on a different plane.
@@heefo fox over hughes lmaooooooo
So true, you could move 2-8 around any way you want and I wont complain. These are just my personal preferences.
hope hughes wins norris this year would be cool for a canuck to finally get one
He’s a lock nucks too good
Heiskanen is a very good number 1 dman. But having him ahead of hughes is an extremely bad take. Even before the monster year hughes is having this year, hughes didnt up his defensive game this year, he upped his offense. Hughes leveled up defensively probably 2.5 years ago but nobody really noticed. He took his offense to the next level this year and is CLEARLY only half a step behind makar if not neck and neck. Those are the 2 best dmen in the league and its not even debatable. Its them 2 and then everyone else.
Bro, having Quinn below Fox and Heiskanen makes you lack any legitimacy imo… only Makar is on par
Where’s Dobson?
#10 cmon now did you watch the video
I was going to unsub but I'm not subbed already. You messed up with Quinn and anyone who has watched decades of the game will tell you the same. Cale is not as good as Quinn this year either. 💀 had Cale started his career with the Canucks you would not even know who he is.
Adam Fox is easily a top 3.
Aaron
Ur so funny buddy lol
Guess Bouch might have 2000 points and wise youtubers would go „Naaaah, merchant of #97…“
🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
This is his breakout season truly. Let me see Bouchard do this consistently all next season and we can add him to the top 10 for now he stays in my honorable mentions.
What a joke QH at 4
Wheres Dougie Hamilton!!
Ik dobson
Personally?
Cale and Fox are too good
too good yet both have less points than hughes?
Points aren't everything. We are talking defensemen here after all
@@jimmyhockey stop saying empty shit and produce the stats that show they are better than hughes defensively.
@@Goats22 You’re a joke.
@@mcj44 your life is a joke little boy
Dougie Hamilton miss because he’s been out most of the season?
I still don’t think he’d make the list.
He's an offensive defenseman. There are defensive defenseman, like Adam Pelech for instance. This list is comprised of guys who excell on both sides of the game.
McAvoy all the way.
Easily top 5
bro forgot bouchard
Nah he is not top 10. Honorable mention though
@@jimmyhockeyBro, 15 goals, best ppount shot in the league and games in hand being No 6 in the scoring list makes you rank him somewhere ? You have no clue.
Doughty? Slavin?
Honorable mentions, had them in that part
@@jimmyhockey mb I stopped watching when there was like a minute left since I had something to do. Sorry for wasting your time
Bro josi is too high for me he just behind fox, people putting Hughes #2 are crazy this guys got is first top 5 d-man this year and he is a defensive liability vs other player on this list
Hughes is plus 36
Holy bud go smoke another 1 QH is a+36 what r u on man who is ur Dman if u don't mind me asking?
Hedman is over mcavoy and hughes over miro
I disagree, Mcavoy is a stud and so is Miro. One more great year from Hughes and I agree
@@jimmyhockey i love miro im a dallas fan but hughes is will be better but i understand ur pov. If playoffs comes im sure 90% of people pick hedman over mcavoy same as u sad about ur goalie video about vasi hes got not the best year but when playoffs comes i will take vasi over everybody so thats why i pick hedman
All u guys r funny lol lol lol lol lol lol lol😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Makar is 3 or 4 at best
