I really wish I had the patience to go and count all the right shot D in the league. I bet there aren't enough for every team to have 3.
NHL.com made it really easy, there have been 100 in the league this season. If I eliminate the ones who have played less than 10 games there are 91 but three of those haven't played because of injury(Matt Greene, James Wisniewski, Paul Postma) so that would mean there is just 3.03 right shot defenceman per team. If I were to further eliminate those who would not be in the NHL except for injury call ups there would be less than 3 for every team in the league and that doesn't even factor in which pairing each player plays on.

Its been a bane of the Wings when it comes to RHD or RHF.. we have two playing for us right now. There have been times when we had 0 over the last 4-5 years. |

It just bothers me when casual fans think every team has to have 3 RHD and 3 LHD when there actually aren't enough to go around. |

My favorite thing about McDavid is what hasn't happened yet. The second coming of the Gretzky trade. |

And then those same people that expect to have 3 RHD all expect them to be perfect in every way. |

Nah, Chiarelli will decide that McDavid is a danger to the Edmonton community and trade him for a new Bottom six and a mustache ride from Claude julien once he grows his creepy looking goatee back. |

Gryba, Schultz and Fayne does that sound like every team's ideal 3? People are dumb and there aren't enough of us around to edmucate them. |
