You are way overreacting here.Be that as it may, that's the second pairing and they still have to play defense during the hockey game. Why put two defensively weak D men together if you don't have to? I'll reserve judgement for now but those two had better get on the same page quick or I won't be the only one raising alarm bells.
First of all, Shattenkirk isn't "defensively weak". He's not as good as Pietrangelo but he's fine in that area. He's also not someone who I think is really out there laying everything on the line in a preseason game.
Next, it seems to me like you're basing this pairing off of one game that you saw. You're acting like they're making mistakes left and right and "better get on the same page quick". Now the Blues brass isn't perfect, but if the front office and coaching staff both raved about Edmundson and thought that was a good pairing, then I'm certainly going to believe them over you. Not trying to be a dick but man, you're acting like the pairing is a disaster when it's clear the team thinks the exact opposite of you. That right there just tells me that you're way off base here and need to relax.
