My Take
Guy Carbonneau is a player I respect precisely because he rarely grabbed headlines. Winning the Selke Trophy three times, he turned the thankless art of shutting down opposing stars into a craft, and his Stanley Cup with Montreal proved that defence wins too. After nineteen seasons he moved into coaching and management, never far from the game. I have a soft spot for these unsung architects of victory, the men who win games in ways the box score barely captures. From Sept-Îles, Quebec, he earned every bit of his quiet legend.
