Top 50 NHL Fantasy Hockey Defenseman Rankings - November 2022 2.0 UPDATE

November 2022 NHL fantasy hockey defensemen rankings update number two.

Our fantasy hockey defensemen rankings project value for the next 1 to 2 seasons, and consider each player's track record, upside, age, team and injury history. Because fantasy league categories vary widely, these rankings focus on point production. Notes made in previous rankings may carry over to new rankings if they remain relevant.
