Speculation: Which Defensive Prospect is going to rise to become the 1st long term D-Man

[JetsFan815]

Jets should send a spy into the Ducks scouting department. Bob Murray seems to know how to draft defensemen. That franchise has defenseman coming out left, right and center without ever having any high picks

That's because they take a Dman every other draft regardless of BPA.

When Shero was Pittsburgh GM he said they generally would look at drafting D especially early in the draft because they could get more for those prospects at the TD. They were worth more.

Morrissey

They definitely are. Look at what Larsson brought NJ.

 

[Arthur Fonzarelli]

Gotta go with Morrissey. On that list, no one else really compares with him whatsoever.

 

[mazmin]

logan stanley

 

[burnoutberry]

It's taking some time for him to develop, but pretty sure it'll be Morrissey. He sees the ice so well and has high hockey IQ.

 

[sully1410]

Thats a nice thought, but Pronger actually put up a ton of points in Peterborough.

I'm just being a smart ass.

 

[citizenmundane]

Adam Lowry after he goes all Buff up in here and decides he wants to play D.

 

[Thorburnt]

Morrissey will cap as a #3 and one or two of everyone else will get to Top 4, with an edge given to Poolman + Green.

 

[Grind]

tough call.

Probably Morrissey

Then Green

though i don't actuallyh believe any of them REALLY have top pairing upside, which means just about any of them can make it.

Honestly would not be surprised if it wasn't Morrissey but one of the more random guys like Green, Niku, or even (dare I say it) Stanley (just because if he was a third, a team would probably THINK he was a #1 simply because of size)
