Quinn Hughes even if it may seem early
It’s still Quinn Hughes
No_Report_2682
Quinn Hughes ultimately will be, honorable mentions to Alex Elder and Matthias Ohlund
Not-Giraffe-Kit
Quinn no doubt

Quinn is going to win, so I’m just gonna shout out some of the great defensively orientated guys we’ve had recently like Ohlund, Tanev, and Hamhuis.

Hughes.

My interpretation of this is not that it’s the best defenceman, but rather the best defender. And quite honestly I think if you’re trying make an entertaining grid you should get as many different people on it as possible.
Therefore my vote is Tanev

Quinn without a doubt…. also I really hope mark messier sees this thread…. lol fuck messier

Elder vs Hughes. Hughes easily after his James Norris win. Puts him in the category of elites (Orr, Coffey, Chara, Lidstrom, Bourque, etc..)

Quinn breaking records, making records and taking records. 43.

Quinn Hughes. But honourable mention to Sami Salo. Highest +/-, most game winning goals, big minute muncher when not injured.

Tanev
BurnabyMartin
Ryan Kesler, the best shutdown defensive forward the Canucks have ever had.
(HONOURABLE MENTION: Mike Peca)
Ruilin96
Derrick Pouliot duh /s
Judge_Todd
Jeff Brown, Paul Reinhart, Jovo, Lidster or Hughes.

Hughes with honourable mention to Dave Babych

Mike Keenan for worst coach and it’s not even close.

Dana Murzyn the lowest

Ohlund was my favourite
cbcguy84
Quinn Hughes for sure. If going purely by defending, maybe ohlund
ZackyGood
Tanev.
He was the best at defending.
JoeMommaAngieDaddy17
If we’re talking defender like best defense I’m thinking Hamhuis
ArcticWolf81
Tanev

Im going to go with Alex Edler here, although you could talk me into Matthias Ohlund.
We all know Hughes is the most talented, but if we’re talking about *all time* these guys were absolute work horses for a decade plus in the league.

Petr Nedved was great, had a long successful career

Sami Salo, 566 Games Played +78!

I feel like this needs to be “best defenseman not named Hughes”, because it’s so obviously Hughes… kind of like how the 2nd place position, for all time NHL points, will be celebrated likes it’s the #1 spot (Gretzky’s record is simply unattainable).
I would therefore vote for Ohlund.

Quinn Hughes no contest.
Some other guys worth mentioning – Alex Edler, Chris Tanev, Dan Hamhuis, Jyrki Lumme, Jovocop, Ohlund.
More I can’t remember right now, all with their different talents, Bieksa was great but divisive – some people were ready to run him out of town before the 2011 playoffs.
But Quinn is by far the best defenders to ever wear a Canucks jersey. He is a general out there – the way he tilts the ice in the Canucks favour when he is really on is amazing. He defends by dictating the play.
Defence not so hard when in others teams zone.

The fact he already has a Norris in his young career. Easy decision. Quinn!

Hughes, obviously, at the point.
But before last year, I would still have given the nod to Öhlund.
jholden23
I mean, Hughes is amazing but also I still miss the steady presence of Dan Hamhuis.
