flyerfan2 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 For the Flyers and also the entire NHL, Bob Clarke , yes he was that good. Clarke was and remains the best of the best when it comes to this category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyerfan2 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 @JR EwingAs always Daryl good list,I'd add one more player to it that never got a lot of recognition for his defensive roll on different teams and that is Jerry ( the shadow)Butler.he new his roll well and stuck to opposing players like glue.

Poulin20 Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 I'd add Ron Sutter to the list with Clarke and Poulin. I second that! Great great faceoff man. I still rock his jersey at games as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JR Ewing Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Because I want to know what flyers fans think about it. Is that so difficult to comprehend? The membership of this site is overwhelmingly comprised of Flyers fans. No matter what forum a topic is posted to, you're going to find out what they think.

JagerMeister Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 If Bergeron doesn't fall off a cliff both literally and figuratively, then he will soon be discussed amongst the greatest defensive forwards of all time. as a matter of fact. he can arguably be discussed among them already.

jammer2 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Gary Unger never gets mentoned, but he was a fine defensive forward. Best of all time....Bob Gainey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
