The DFO Fantasy Show continues its 2026-27 Fantasy Hockey Draft Preview with a deep dive into the defense position!

Brock Seguin and Beebs Bondy break down the consensus Top 10 fantasy hockey defensemen, with Cale Makar holding onto the No. 1 spot ahead of Evan Bouchard, Quinn Hughes and Zach Werenski.

Is Makar worth spending a top-six pick on when Bouchard is available later? Can Bouchard build off a monster 21-goal, 95-point season? Is Quinn Hughes capable of pushing 90+ points? And which defensemen become even more valuable in leagues that count hits and blocks?

The guys also break down Rasmus Dahlin, Lane Hutson, Matthew Schaefer, Moritz Seider, Adam Fox and Jake Sanderson as they work through one of the deepest groups of fantasy defensemen in years.

Then it's time to go beyond the Top 10 and find some of the biggest draft-day opportunities:

💎 VALUE PICKS: Rasmus Dahlin & Simon Edvinsson

🚀 BREAKOUT PICKS: Luke Hughes & Philip Broberg

⚠️ ADPs TO AVOID: Darren Raddysh & Cole Hutson

Could Rasmus Dahlin be one of the biggest early-round steals at his current ADP? Is Luke Hughes finally ready for the monster breakout fantasy managers have been waiting for? And are managers paying too much for Darren Raddysh after his huge season?

Plus, Brock and Beebs discuss category coverage, True ADP, customizable rankings and draft strategy, including why waiting on defense could be one of the best approaches to building a championship roster this season.

Whether you're playing in a categories league, points league or a format that rewards hits and blocks, this episode has everything you need to attack the defense position on draft day.
