  1. I don’t really put much stock in that article on the best defensive pairings. It questions who will pair with Jack Elliot since McKenzie only played 6 games last year. Are they expecting to have another appendicitis this season? Or are they discounting him because of games he may miss for Olympic qualifying and possibly a trip to Tokyo?
