I think it just depends on how you want to roll out the defense -- with Theo - Jones // Dillon - Ellis // Vlasic - ADA, it gives a stay at home guy (Jones - sure he does more but just for this example, Dillon, Vlasic), and a player that can rush up with the play (Theo, Ellis, ADA). Alternatively you could stack the top line with Theo - Ellis and have it really push the offense while having Dillon - Jones as the real shutdown line. Either way, the defense will be sick.
I think I'm just a bit higher on Ellis and lower on Jones than you, but I also think Vlasic-ADA is better suited for the 3rd pair. I do however think that one of Jones' biggest strengths really is skating with the play, going from defense to offense, just like Theodore, and that Shea is just better att it. I'd rather have Theodore doing that on the first pair, with Ellis who's good at basically everything else. Then Jones can transport for a defensively solid Dillon, and Deangelo can hold the puck literally all the time on that third pairing no im serious please dont give the puck to vlasic it doesnt work hes just not good anymore i dont want to imaginehimgettinganymeaningfulamountoficetimewi...
