As of today...Kronwall should be #1 on this list, yes ahead of Phaneuf...

 

[Jaysfanatic*]

There's a guy named Funk? Wicked

 

[Epsilon]

As of today...Kronwall should be #1 on this list, yes ahead of Phaneuf...

He's a better defenseman right now, but Phaneuf has more potential.

What about Ryan Suter?

What about Ryan Suter?

Eight posts before someone asks the whereabouts of a player not mentioned in the original post.

What about Ryan Suter? Great defenseman.. not requested in raTcine's rankings.

I'll rank the guys I know:

Phaneuf
Kronwall
Weber
Ballard
Carle
O'Neill
Goligoski
Ramholt
Funk


Just an observation, but I think Matt Carle is a bit overlooked around these boards. He's a tremendous prospect for the Sharks. Excellent at both ends of the rink, with good size and skating ability. He could end up the third or so best defenseman out of this group IMO.

???They're not on the list.

 

[Levitate]

nycholat? i'd be surprised if he is ever really any more than a career AHLer...he makes way too many stupid mistakes and his AHL fiestiness doesn't really translate to the NHL too well.

The original poster didn't ask about either of these guys, so you can stop shaking your head.

I like this list, and thanks for actually answering the original question! I wish there were more people on these boards like you who read the original post!!
