I'd seriously consider splitting up Weegar-Andersson to even out the pairings a bit. Also is Kylington there again?

I think keeping a solid top 4 and a bottom 2 you give extreme sheltered minutes to is a better options than weakening 2 pairings.

I don't agree. Run with 4 solid pairs and get 40 plus minutes of time
Only need third pair to get sheltered 8-10 mins a night

An injury to Markstrom would be unfortunate.

I’m not sure I can take alternating between Star Wars gifs and howling wolf gifs that look like the art on overpriced gas station t-shirts every game.

is there anything accurate in this post or am I missing something?

4 pairs = 8 guys.
40+ minutes leave 20 minutes for the 'third pair'?
the fourth pair gets 0 minutes?

What?

The 3rd pair was a disaster against Vancouver. I'd spread it out rather than exhaust your top 4 D.

Hanifin-Andersson
Solovyov-Weegar
Gilbert-Tanev

Something along those lines. Just imagine if Kylington were available too.

It was a simple typing mistake. Pretty easy to track nderstand what was implied. 4D not pairs.

Good thing we still have Pulp Fiction gifs then.

8-10mins for the 3rd pair means 30mins of icetime for your top pair and 20-22mins for your 2nd pair. Throw in OT and that's 35ish mins for Andersson/Hanifin and 27ish mins for Weegar and Tanev.

Not to mention you said 8-10 "sheltered" minutes for the bottom pair, so that's 50-52 tough minutes (not 40) a night on your top 4.

Unless I'm misunderstanding the context, I'm just not sure that's sustainable.
