I can see the top pairing being Weegar-Andersson, and the second pairing being Hanifin-Tanev.

See, in the big games in the playoffs I was dumbfounded by Ras’ decision making. As much as Hanifin’s performance against the Oilers gets flack around here, for me many of those were forced turnovers that ended up in our net. For Ras, the 4 on 2 pinches when McDavid was on the ice, in an elimination game at a critical juncture, left me shaking my head.
I’ll take the steadier Hanifin who could have benefitted from a less reckless partner, in the playoffs at least.
