I'm also in the camp that wants to see Parekh/Weegar as a pair. I think once he's adjusted to the NHL (hopefully as soon as next season), that could be a dominant offensive pairing.
It just makes too much sense putting your best two D-men together and giving us a truly elite pair.
Also Weegar is signed for a long-time, might as well find out early if there's chemistry there and if there is.. we have a top pair solidified for the forseeable future.
These conversations kind of remind me a bit of the Gaudreau/Tkachuk discussions about putting them on different lines to spread out the offence, but it wasn't until we saw them together with Lindholm and loaded up one line that the team really looked dangerous. It's not apples to apples, of course.
Also should probably mention I'm talking next season, maybe see them in camp and go from there. I doubt it happens this year but wouldn't be dissapointed to see it tried if we're out of it.
