I'm 68 years old , a huge Toronto Maple Leaf fan and yes I loved Tim Horton, but I'm afraid Borje Salming was the greatest defensemen in Leaf history. 1099 games for the Leafs 148 goals and 620 assists for 768 points. No other Leaf defenseman has come close to those numbers. This is why he should be the greatest defenseman in Leafs history.

I agree & don't. I have Turnbull & Salming tied. Salming still holds record for assist 1 season by Toronto defenseman at 66. He hold record for assist all time by a Toronto hockey player career 620. Goals & points all time by Toronto defenseman. Turnbull is only defenseman in NHL history to record 5 goals in a single game he also scored a 4 goal game as a l.a king. Still holds record for points one season by Toronto defenseman 79 set in 1977. He shares the club record for goals 1 season by Toronto defenseman 22 with Ifrati. Just because these defenseman didn't win a stanley cup & Horton did doesn't make him the better defenseman it takes a team to accomplish that. Horton didn't set the records these men did.

​@@user-sy8kj5nn8sIan Turnbull to me should be declared the Most Underachieving defenceman in Leafs history. He had the skills to surpass Salming if he realized his potential. Milt Schmidt once said that "if a player better than Bobby Orr comes around, I hope that the good Lord sees me fit to be on this Earth...well he did get to see Ovechkin but not McDavid. But this is about defencemen. None the less, I'm old enough to remember Bobby Orr. NOBODY that I saw in the 20th century, defenceman or forward came anywhere near Number 4 - NOBODY, not even Gordie Howe, Bobby Hull, Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux.

For Arizona, methink Teppo Numminen tops OEL. He put up the same kind of offense for a lot longer for the Coyotes and Jets before that. And for St Louis, y'all are underrating Pronger. Pietrangelo might have a cup and more consistent offense, but Pronger won a Hart trophy as a D-Man and made St Louis into a powerhouse for a decade. He also has 1200 more PIM than Piet in about 100 more games, and he wasn't even a reckless player. He was just a mean SOB nobody wanted to play against who would also pop in a bunch of points every season from the blue line.

It's the unpopular opinion but I consider both Orr and Lidstrom the GOATS of defensemen. One is the greatest offensive, the other the greatest defensive. I feel there is a significant difference but still importance in that. Teams target responsible shutdown D-men as well as pinching up slapshot bombers. There should be two awards since only the top points leaders get full Norris consideration

It's wild! He missed 42 games over the course of his entire career, with 12 being in his final season. And he played 263 playoff games. It's effectively like he never missed a game, played full seasons in the '95 and '05 lockout, and STILL played enough games to at least play one round of playoffs all 20 years. I think his conditioning is one of his greatest strengths, and that, along with his vision/decisionmaking, are what made him so elite. He obviously was never a big physical presence, he wasn't a huge offensive threat, and he wasn't even known for extreme speed. But, as those game played stats showed, he was ALWAYS available, and as people who watched him know, he played at a consistently high level for virtually his entire career. He simply always had both the awareness and ability to be in the right place at the right time constantly, over 20 years. Which is hard to quantify, but definitely makes him one of the greatest to ever play the position.

There's only three men in NHL history with a higher career +/- than Wayne Gretzky and all three were defensemen. Wayne Gretzky's team scored 520 more goals than they allowed when Wayne was on the ice during his NHL career. Ray Bourque was +527, Bobby Orr was +582 and Larry Robinson was +792. Bobby Orr's single season +124 in 1970-1971 is the single most impressive hockey stat that I have ever seen.

As a Wings fan whose formative years of hockey fandom coincided exactly with Lidstrom's career, I feel like this was true in the '90s (see how he was used to counter Philly's Legion of Doom, instead of the Wings going with a more "brute force vs. brute force" route of throwing Konstantinov at them), but as he racked up Norris trophies and won the Conn Smythe among one of the most star-studded Cup-winning squads ever, I don't think you could say that by the mid-00s. Nowadays, virtually every time I see the topic come up, I very rarely see Lidstrom considered worse than third-greatest dman of all time.

Man, whats wrong with you? Numinnen over OEL in Arizona, Salming in Toronto, you want pick by defensive side too? Then Salei for Anaheim, Glen Wesley Carolina, Canuck legend Paul Reinhart, Montreal greatest is Harvey, no doubt. You look there just by points, Harvey dominate game on both sides. St. Louis - Pronger was same. And Franchise is not same as team, team is Arizona, franchise is Winnipeg/Phoenix/Arizona.

Sorry but Erik Karlsson has nothing to do in this list. Probably one of the most overrated D-man in the NHL history. His career +/- stats : -97 says it all. Clearly this guy is anything but a good D-man !

The same can be said about Phil Housley who was a -53. He was basically a power play specialist. The best defensemen in Buffalo history is Bill Hajt who may be surpassed by Dahlin someday. BTW, Housley was -53, Hajt was +321.
