Changing up the pairings

[scorlovaf]

I don't think I'm the only one who thinks the Alzner Carlson pairing is absolutely awful. In my opinion when those two are on the ice they are our biggest liabilities. When they play together the capitals possession is at 44%. They are both not great at clearing the zone or breaking it out, and we usually don't sustain good offensive pressure when they are on the ice. Do you guys think it would be smart to break them up?

Breaking them up would mean breaking up one of the two good pairings.
