Especially in the modern era the most effective defencemen are big, fast, shut down types like Suter, Weber, and pietrangelo who use both size and speed to control the game.
Bogosian and Schenn are two meat and potatoes guys not sure many would trade Erik Karlsson for them. Arguably who is better between them and Gardiner at this point. From that same draft not sure many are pleased in Buffalo and LA right now with meat and potatoes Myers and Teubert.
