Brett Lebda.
His career is summarized in a game he went -3 where the leafs won that matchup against the thrashers 9-3.

Been a lot. Some that come to mind.

Lebda as mentioned.

Andy Woznewski. I recall being the slowest d man I've ever seen. They paired him with Gill to make him look even slower lol.

Jeff Finger.

Garnet Exelby

Jonas Frogren

 

[Judas Tavares]

Lebda and Wozniewski as mentioned.

Mike Kostka was horrible. As was Paul Ranger. Anders Eriksson.

 

[MilkofthePoppy]

Frankie Corrado and its not even close. Absolutely pitiful.

 

[Jojalu]

So it isn't Holl?

Judging by last years posts I would swear it was him.

 

[The Iceman]

Nyland, Benning, Melrose, McGill, Komiserek, Oziganov, Tim Gleason, Drake Berehowski, TJ Brennan.

I have seen a lot over the years BUT....Klingberg might be the worst defensively (Small sample)

 

[1specter]

Tyson Barrie was dogshit at defense

 

[TMLife17]

Lebda


Bunch of old people

Barrie

 

[Kelly]

Aki Berg

 

[MK78]

Aki Berg

was just about to post.

 

[LeafSadist]

Staffan Kronwall

 

[ACC1224]

Berg would be top 4 on this current team. Not even close to being the worst defenseman.

 

[AvroArrow]

Nobody is worse than Lebda. Hands down the biggest turd I have ever seen in the NHL, not just the Leafs. Honorable mention to Martin Marincin. Gardiner was garbage, but at least he provided some offence.

 

[MK78]

Jyrki Lumme? heh

I just laughed out loud knowing you've just found a way to fill the missing void in your heart after they got rid of the last guy you had an unnatural hate for (Engvall).

Keith Aulie
Calle Johansson
Woz

*edit for correction, tip of the hat to keonsbitterness

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Jonas Frogren

I'm not sure about worst of all-time, but Frogren was certainly someone on skates. I honestly think he could've played without a stick because he just loved acting like a goalie in front of the crease.

To make things worse, Leafs lost a 4th rounder and were fined $500K for violating the CBA when they got him. All that for 41 games of Frogren.

 

[leafsfan2point0]

I remember watching Andy Wozniewski with my dad as a kid and we would always say Andy What’s-new-ski because he was good for being at fault for at least 1 goal per game lol.

 

[Squiffy]

Lebda and Wozniewski as mentioned.

Mike Kostka was horrible. As was Paul Ranger. Anders Eriksson.

Ranger? The rest ok, but Ranger was ok.

Berg would be top 4 on this current team. Not even close to being the worst defenseman.

Ya, he's a meme. Here on HF Leafs specifically. Not in conversation

Jim Korn
Wayne Hillman
Mike Pelyk
Staffan Kronwall
Brett Lebda
Jeff Finger
Mike Komisarek
Keith Aulie
Calle Johansson
Woz

This is a real list.

 

[Matty Sundin]

Aki Berg

He got a lot of hate but he wasn’t as bad people say. He wasn’t even worse dman on the team during his time here.

Worst dman I saw on the leafs happens to be a hall of famer that was way passed it. If anyone remembers Phil Housley short stint in 2003 you would know what I’m talking about. He was completely cooked.

 

[Judas Tavares]

Ranger? The rest ok, but Ranger was ok.

This is a real list.

I seem to remember Ranger looking good on the Marlies when he came back to hockey. But his Leaf time my memory says he struggled mightily. I could be wrong though, but the fact that his name came to my head so easily means I suffered some sort of PTSD with him.

 

[Larcos_Unal]

Aki Berg

Considering there was no cap then, that roster goes very deep with an upgrade on Aki
