EJ will be the best defenseman out of the young crop (including JJ, Weber, and Phaneuf). I don\'t think he will surpass Jay Bouwmeester, but he is the total package.
with all the northwest games you see, I would\'ve thought your opinion of phaneuf would be higher...
I can\'t believe you say that bouwmeester is better (fantasy wise) than phaneuf... Bouwmeester is two years older, has been in the nhl two years more and has yet to have a season that matches phaneufs worst (points wise). That\'s not even mentioning the fact that phaneuf had more goals in his rookie campaign than bouwmeester did in his first three combined...
I like bouwmeester and everything but in my eyes, phaneuf is the overall package if there ever was one. He\'s been in the top five in defender goals, powerplay goals, and shots on goal in both seasons so far. His penalty minutes totals are also one of the best in the league among defenders that actually put up points.
The last time someone scored as many goals as a defender as phaneuf in their first two seasons was in 1980-82 when coffey scored 38 (1 more than phaneuf) in his first two seasons with the oilers. Other than that, bourque did it one year prior in 1979-81 with 44.
Either way, I\'d say that phaneuf is in pretty good company since Bourque and Coffey are arguably two of the top five (or even top 3) fantasy defenders of all time.
