So I've decided to hold off going FF for the time being and stick with the 40D but I figured that instead I would invest in a pair of lenses. Which do you think is a better combo?

Combo 1
Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 IS and Canon 50mm f/1.4

or

Combo 2
Canon 17-55mm f/2.8 IS and Canon 85mm f/1.8

Keep in mind, I have a Tokina 11-16 for my wide shots. I primarily like to shoot portraits but I also like the flexibility of being able to reach far enough to shoot events like hockey, etc. Any advice would be appreciated!
