A look at the top 10 fantasy hockey defensemen under the age of 23
Youth rules the day when it comes to fantasy hockey.
That's why people would rather Vladimir Tarasenko over Jamie Benn, Jake Allen over Jaroslav Halak and Connor McDavid over pretty much everyone in the league.
This is also true when it comes to defencemen. So instead of warning against it, I decided to embrace it. There are tons of young defencemen in the league already making waves, more than ever before. Erik Karlsson, P.K. Subban, John Carlson, Roman Josi, Drew Doughty, Alex Pietrangelo, Victor Hedman, Ryan McDonagh, Jake Gardiner, and Justin Schultz are all either 24 or 25 years (look at that, I just gave you another top 10 list for free). If defencemen hit their primes in their late 20s, then there are going to be a lot of happy fantasy owners over the next few years.
