Doohickie Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 I like the Joki pairing actually. At least give it a look. Not sure Butcher-Fitz is a strong enough pairing. I think they're both complementary Dmen, neither is a pair leader. I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doohickie Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 (edited) If Dahlin does okay in the left right side, that could be a very strong first pairing. Edited April 11, 2022 by The Ghost of Yuri No, his other left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to like it but it makes me nervous. I hope I'm wrong. Maybe it will bring out the big guy in Fitz. 2 minutes ago, woods-racer said: I like Bryson with Fitz.

pi2000 Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 Fitz and Bryson will be a disaster in their own end. I'd have gone with.... Samuelsson - Dahlin Power - Pysyk Jokiharju - Bryson 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfreeman Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 Ryan Johnson should take a look at those pairings and realize that while the top 4 are pretty clear, everything after that is wide open. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samuelsson - Dahlin Power - Pysyk Jokiharju - Bryson Yep, that's my concern too. I expect Joki and Power to be a pairing tomorrow but I wouldn't be surprised if the rest of that is something Donny is working toward versus what he's doing right now. (i.e., let's see what the pregame skate pairings look like) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 I've been waiting on Dahlin/Mule since draft day 2018. Bryson is fine on the 3rd pair. Fitzy I'm getting worried about; courage and effort can only take you so far. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PerreaultForever Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 So the plan is put Dahlin on the right side rather than sign a RHD I suspect. I personally don't like the Joker Power pairing. Unlike many people here I do not think Joker is a particularly good D man. idk, I don't have a good pairing for him as the right side is weak top to bottom, but I'd start him with a vet like Pysyk if it was me.

I don't think there is any question Jokiharju is a better defenceman right now than Pysyk. And I don't mean more talented, I mean he defends better, he transitions better and he attacks better. Over the season Pysyk has proven to be what he has been the past few years: a low-risk 6-7 who gets exposed against better players and with overuse. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doubt it means much to be honest. If anything it may make a LHD vet defender possible but I doubt they want to go into next year with Jokiharju as their elder statesman on defense. Fitz strikes me as a AAAA player or 7/8 guy. He’s a perfect gritty filler player but nowhere good enough to be a game in game out Top 6.
