For what it is worth, the season he was a 2nd team NHL all star (so top 4 NHL defencemen) was 1987-88 which was an Olympic year. Had NHLers been allowed to go to the Olympics it's virtually assured that he would have been on the team as a key member.

The 87-88 NHL second all star team also had Gretzky at center, so he was in pretty good company there.
