It's time to start recognizing the top 4 on D for the Flames. IMO no clear cut #1 or #2 pairing, but a very well rounded group that is really getting it done. Rasmus and Hanifin looking like a workhorse pairing that can get it done all over the ice. I had my doubts about #4 but he has improved throughout the year. Just a very underrated pair.
And Tanev has been super solid playing with the revelation, Kylington. That's a perfect partner for Oliver.
A lot of credit to Kylington for busting out this year but has Sutter ever created magic with those 4.
