he is in the top ten for goals, helpers and points for d men right now

the all around game, is debatable

if he made 4 mil per year he would be an under rated d man

off the top of my head id rather have Chara, Karlesson, Burns, Doughty, Myers, Keith, Weber...........thats off the top of my head, soem of those are probably debatable and I probably forgot some guys......but remember he didnt even make Team Canada in 2010

serious question, how can Myers even sniff the top 20?

he was lost on the ice more often then not in his last season and a half

this is not a fantasy keeper league, it's who are the ten best d men in the nhl right now

He was having a bad year in 2010....I completely agreed with not having him on the team.
No one is saying he's the best dman in the league.....he's simply not overated...just overpaid.

you named many that I was toying with and left off the list

what I found out was it was easy to come up with 6 better then him, and about 15 d men that are all around great players and it's a fine line between 7 and say 22

and myers is not on the cut nor should he be right now

Staal has played like 5 games this years, i cant put him on that list. I think Timmonen's best days are behind him. Lidtrsom is a once a generation guy, unreal.

I don't really care who's overrated, they either do their job or they don't.

It would certainly be interesting to know who and how many "overrated" players responded to this BS survey.

A special thanks goes out to those 163 anonymous players who have now lit a fire under Dion's a$$.

Here comes a 20G / 40A / 100PIM / +10 / 175 BKS / 30 PPP / 250 SOG season for Dion baby!!!... WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
