Here are eight all-time defensemen from both the right and the left (position, not politically). The list is in no particular order...
On the Right: Bobby Orr, Eddie Shore, Ray Bourque, Denis Potvin, Larry Robinson, Chris Chelios, Brad Park, Tim Horton
On the Left: Doug Harvey, Red Kelly, Paul Coffey, Nicklas Lidstrom, Guy Lapointe, Scott Stevens, Brian Leetch, Pierre Pilote
Feel free to mention those deserving that didn't make my lists. Pronger, MacInnis, come to mind. You can also consider international players. Fetisov comes to mind.
But I like the all-rounders so I'd say Ray Bourque and Nick Lidstrom. Who would you have on your blue line?

I wish people would stop thumbs downing people for legitimate answers.

I'm pretty sure Orr and Harvey played on different sides of the defense.

Bobby Orr started 521 games in the NHL as a LEFT defenceman (according to the National Hockey League's archives).
Scott Stevens started over 1000 games as a left defenceman. He also started 67 as a right defenceman, all with St. Louis.

This is easy, Doug Harvey to back up Bobby Orr who would be pinching into the offensive zone.

Bobby Orr and Doug Harvey............there are none more deserving. Although they both played the same side, Harvey would move over for Orr

And to answer your question, I don't know really. I agree with alot you said.
One of my favorite defenseman is Sergei Gonchar though.
