Hedman won the Vezina too? According to Tanner he also finished 2nd for the Heisman behind Matthews this year.

AGREED! I think he just put that in there to provoke the readers! Why else would he be there in front of Provorov, Weber, Ekblad, Slavvin, Rielly, McAvoy, Orlov, McDonagh, ... really Jake Gardiner better than these guys!! oops.

Are we sure that Tanner and French's section weren't mixed up? Because it certainly seems like that's the case.

Hedman
Karlsson
Jones
Letang, if/when healthy

After that there is a whole list of guys to pick from McAvoy, Ekblad, Werenski, Rielly, Weber, Provorov, Gostisbehere, Hamilton, Carlsson... and Dahlin will probably be on the list sooner rather than later.

All things considered if I had to choose one to have on the Leafs right now, it would be Jones.

I’m surprised Tanner didn’t pick OEL..

He’ll have OEL as #1 in the West tomorrow.

Faulk is the 3rd or 4th best defenseman on his own team now.

Probably Faulk but he just has the benefit of his age. Green in his prime was infinitely better than Faulk though.

After Fedorov, Mike Green was the best forward to ever play defense.
