I really like Russell and Wideman, but I'm not going to say we have the best defense in the league until I see one of those two take the #4 role and form an effective pairing with Dougie or Brodie. And I mean a pairing that can keep shots on goal to the outside and not get hemmed in.
I'm also skeptical of our #6 spot, especially if it's Engelland.

I think we are top 5 maybe top 3 for sure but Chicago (Keith, Seabrook, Hjalmarsson) and Preds (Weber,Jones and Josi) would give us a run for our money too - not to take anything away from Gio, Hamilton and Brodie.
On a sidenote - I like the Jets D too and they may not be top 5 but should get honourable mention imo.
