Jackets defense had a 3rd pairing at around 8 minutes TOI last night. This meant that Jones, Werenski and Johnson were all around 26 minutes (Savard was around 21 minutes).
Penguins, on the other hand, had a defense all with similar TOI last night. The low was Cole at 18:21 and the high was Schultz at 20:07. This seems to me to be the best way to handle it. Spread out the minutes if you can so as not to wear down anyone too early.
