Two Flames defensemen who wore a #3 who were traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs for underwhelming returns are currently tied.

Best Flames Defence pairings ever, in my mind:

Suter McCrimmon
MacInnis Musil
Phaneuf Hamrlik

Hamrlik's hockey IQ let Dion run around the rink and do his thing. Dion's never had a partner since with the hockey IQ of Hamrlik which is a big reason why his career plateaued.

My vote is on Dion, with a big help from Hamrlik.

Dion paired with anyone else was a disaster.

Agreed.

No way does Phaneuf belong in the top ten.

Brad Marsh, the Flames first captain, should be on the list. He is definitely better than half of the guys listed.

Rats. I meant to vote for McCoun, but I suppose an accidental vote for Hmrlik is better than an accidental vote for Russell.

Regehr and Leopold need to be in the top 6

They were very good as a pairing. In the discussion for sure, but not sure they crack the top 6.

Let's see:

Suter and McCrimmon were the best pairing in hockey in 87-88. 2nd team all stars for the league, as a pairing
MacInnis Musil saw MacInnis hit the 100 point plateau and put up one of the best seasons ever by a Flame. Have to acknowledge that.
Phaneuf and Hamrlik: This pairing saw Dion come 2nd in Norris voting that season. Dominant physically as a pairing and a danger to attack offensively.

I think they get the nod as the third pairing. The only other pairing I could see bumping them would be the Giordano Brodie pairing from 2 years ago. I think that pairing is ahead of Regehr and Leopold as well.
