Of the choices provided.

Love the assertion that Hainsey was the problem with that pair.
He's the Methot of that pairing. And look what happened when you took Methot away. You still get the points from your high-risk defenseman and you get a BIG MINUS player.

I'll admit Ron has run out of gas in the playoffs but he kept Leafs IN games all season.

I don't think PP success should be a prime factor, but he was the NHL's most productive Power Play producer, while putting up a decent amount of 5v5 points, and great possession stats despite playing with a total boat anchor.

I don't understand this all-or-nothing rush to evaluation. I definitely think that power-play points pad totals and that 5v5 scoring is a better evaluation tool. That doesn't mean I disregard everything else.

I don't know where you're getting that he was the league's most productive PP producer among defenseman. He was not. That was Shayne Gostisbehere.

Horrible. At least spend a little effort.
