Cherry pick whatever isolated example you want, but Liljegren faces a more defensively skewed workload with a pairing mate who faces opposition top competition. If Warsofsky chose to use Ferraro-Ceci to protect a lead, sure whatever. That doesn't change that Liljegren has been on Ferraro's pairing for most of the time since he arrived in San Jose, and that is San Jose's primary match up pairing. Nobody has argued that Liljegren is their go to shutdown guy, Ferraro is. But Liljegren has been the guy taking the tough matchups with Ferraro since the trade, not Ceci...who like I said, is primarily Walman's babysitter at 5 on 5.
