Ekholm and subban arent even the best pair on their own team... Josi and Ellis have better numbers and even they dont come close to the flavour of the game between Vlasic or Martin paired with Burns..

Edit: Oh and 24+ mins a night on avg/gm is not is not sheltered when you are 3rd in the league in scoring behind Crosby and McDavid and are dominating in all defensive categories.
