Here are the Top 50 Fantasy Prospect Defensemen to own in your points-only dynasty leagues – December edition!
Nothing really adjusted this month versus last month, other than revealing a major new feature (very helpful). Based on reader feedback, I have put in which way the defensemen shoot (LD and RD). This will help you better breakdown how stocked an organization is at one side versus the other, which could help you better determine that player’s odds of making the NHL soon.

Do not forget the usual disclaimer for these: players ranked +/-5.0 rating points from each other should be considered equal, and at that point become a matter of team need and/or personal preference!
