Off the top of my head.. Stralman, Hjalmarsson, Giordano, Muzzin, Miller, Manson all defenseman who took their game to another level past the age of 23. It's not that uncommon you're just being stubborn.Elite players show elite ability before age 23, top pairing D show top pairing ability before age 23. Basically if you are a middle pairing D at age 23 (ability wise, not because coach decisions or they are in a stacked D core), you will be a middle pairing D going forward. Development typically peaks at age 25. So Larsson would have to be the big outlier if he were to become a #1 D or even #2 D
