Give top units about 22 minutes and Brodie Butter 16 minutes.

Hannan, even if old, was once a top defender who could handle 1st pairing minutes. Maybe not full time 1st pairing so Bouwmeester would get SOME more minutes with Brodie or Butler. Bouwmeeser-Butler cannot be a fulltime pairing.
I would be shocked if Sarich ever logged 22 minutes a night, let alone the current version of Sarich. The guy was 18:30 in his Stanley Cup year (good enough for 6th on the Lightning), there is no way in god's green earth that he could have logged 22 minutes.

Brodie got 16 minutes last year, Hannan was barely able to handle the minutes he got let alone more minutes.

Those d-pairings were never an option.
