My idea runs from a somewhat older idea that you keep 2 pairs together and rotate the 3rd on a line to "mix things up" if a player is in a slump. The 2 obvious tandoms I see are Bennett-Poirer and Gaudreau-Monahan.
It would be pretty slick if Bennett-Poirer took on the tough matchups and other teams top D, leaving Gaudreau-Monahan to face softer minutes.
