Default My top 50 Dmen in a points-only keeper league

For those who care (and some who don't), here is my personal ranking of dmen in a points-only keeper league. Unlike Dobber's ranking, I don't consider any stats besides points and the playoffs are not factored into my ranking. Simply put, I'd trade anyone on the list straight up for anyone higher on the list.

I figured some of you might want to compare my list to yours as you are preparing for any upcoming drafts. Enjoy.

1. Drew Doughty
2. Mike Green
3. Keith Yandle
4. Kris Letang
5. P.K. Subban
6. Erik Karlsson
7. Duncan Keith
8. Alex Goligoski
9. Kevin Shattenkirk

12. Lubomir Visnovsky
13. Dustin Byfuglien
14. John Carlson

Love this list, so I'll just add some colour for my own reflection.

GREEN BOLD - I'd move these guys 10+ spots higher.
Green non-bold - I'd move these guys 5-10 spots higher.
Red non-bold - I'd move these guy 5-10 spots lower.
RED BOLD - I'd move these guys 10+ spots lower.

I find it interesting you would trade Nic Lidstrom for 47 other dmen. It all depends on your current team's situation if contending or not...but if I'm contending its a joke to move him for some of the names above him. (GREAT IDEA for a thread tho!!)

Great job. I like a lot of the work you put in there but... no Andrei Markov? The injury argument is not a good one when you consider that Streit is on your list. Bogosian ahead of Markov?

If Healthy, Markov is easily in the top 10 in points for defeseman. Even not healthy, he will produce in 30 games more than Bogosian in one season. IMO he is the biggest miss of your list.

yeah, Lidstrom is a tough one. He will likely be top 5 in scoring this coming season, but I think this is his last year. I wouldn't sacrifice 10 years of having a kid like Elliott for one year with Lidstrom (in a keeper league), unless of course Lidstrom was guaranteed to bring me a championship. Most of the time that is difficult to know. Assuming Lidstrom scores 55 pts and a kid like Elliott scores 35. Will 20 pts win the Championship in most cases? Maybe, maybe not.

Damn, I knew I'd make mistakes. Markov is merely an oversight. I started my list by coping and pasting from another source, and perhaps because he missed nearly the entire season, Markov wasn't on the original list. I'd probably put him just above Lidstrom on my list.

Hehe! Like I said in the introduction of my comment : good job. Even if you forgot someone, your list is very good. Funny how Mike Green dropped in the minds of a lot of people, at the start of last season he was almost untradable. You have Doughty ranked ahead of him even thought Doughty had a relatively average season.

Green and Doughty are close. Green likely has a higher upside, but with injuries and Carlson in the picture, I put Doughty ahead of him. I'm not necessarily buying that Green will be traded, though it is somewhat possible and on another team, I don't know if he can put up 70 pts again. Put it this way, if Doughty and Green were swapped for each other, not many would rank Green ahead of Doughty.

The way I see Seadawg is if your in a limited keeper like I am...you will always find enough bogosians down the line to replace Lidstrom when the time comes. Every year I have 3or4 brutally tough drops...when he retires then bye bye and in comes one of those hard drops.

yeah, I didn't really specify that this was for full keeper leagues, but that's what I had in mind when compiling my list, considering most of my leagues are full keepers.
