Ok we all know at this time and place our defence is medicore at best to the rest of the league and some would say horrific to the defence of Phillies, Calgary, Detriot.

BUT we all know that next year we will have 3 amazing defenceman on our hands.

All without a doubt have the potential to be top pairing defenceman and even number 1 defenceman.


Who do you think will be the next best defenceman for the Ottawa Senators

I honestly believe it will be Wiercioch because of his phenomanal all around ability.

He has dominated in every league he has played for and been a leader on offence and defence.

Patrick Wiercioch's hockey statistics profile at hockeydb.com

He is also a very smooth skater and plays in all situation and went from 6'2 on draft day to 6'5 currently thats HUGE. He also added 20 pounds...It shows you this kids effort to make himself better.

Many scouts keep throwing holes that seperate him from fame but he has so far fixed all his problems the only thing left is his skating.

There was an interview with the coach of the U. of Denver team last month and he said he hasnt seen anyone improve on their skating like Wiercioch.

What do you think and Why.
