Best Defensive Pairing Ever

[BostonAJ]

Coffey-Lowe was amazing, but weird. One guy wouldn't stay back, the other wouldn't jump up. It did work, tho.

Orr-Park played together for a short time.

Who was Konstantinov's partner? Lidstrom?

Forgot about Langway-Stevens. Those two must have given forwards nightmares.

Savard Robinson would be my pick for overall, two-way play.

43 brings up one of the, if not the, best defensive pairings in Langway Stevens.

Recent pairings that have impressed me have been:

Blake - Foote
Macinnis - Pronger
Lidstrom - just about anyone circa 2002-2008.

Another very scary pair. Big Al wasn't as nice as everyone thinks!

Konstantinov was mostly paired up with Fetisov in his heyday, what a pairing that was.

As far as Neidermayer/Pronger and Pronger/MacInnis, weren't those guys always kept seperate? Hell, the Blues really only had four defensemen for a long time. Pronger played 30 minutes, Mac played 30 minutes, and then Jamie Rivers got to fight whatever AHLers were on the bench for the rest.

True, he just looked better than the other guy

Harry Howell - Bill Gadsby

Wow, you're either aging yourself or you're up on your hockey history. I got to work a pre season game between the Rangers and Leafs with those two on the ice.

How about Doug Harvey and Tom Johnson? Five Stanley Cups in a row with those two paired on defense for the Canadiens.
