Travis 576 Report post Posted July 12, 2011 For my money, I see the pairings (in terms of ice time) as: Kronwall / Stuart Lidstrom / White Ericsson / Commodore Kronwall and Stuart can be reunited as our strongest pairing. Lidstrom gets the right-handed shot he needs, and Ericsson is the offensive d-man in his pairing while Commodore shows him how to use his size and adds grit.

That's the best possible pairings I've seen. Kronwall and Stuart have been a great pair since they were first placed together, and should be our natural go-to pair this season.

That gets a thumbs up from me as well...with Kindl & Commodore on rotation I would think & leave Smith down another year in GR to soak up ice time in all situations.
