Well defensive pairs are a bit loopy. Tippett won’t play larsson on his weak side that will force him to his backhand in clearing the zone which isn’t exactly his biggest strength on his strong side this also makes Barrie responsible for almost all clearing which becomes too predictable to play against. My personal preference would be
Nurse bear all situations
Jones/broberg Larsson defensive zone starts
Russell Barrie offensive zone starts.
That’s just what I’d start the year with and if Barrie proves stronger defensively than I give credit for then maybe mix it up and have russell and larsson as a straight up defensive pairing.
