I don't like this for the Flames. Either the Flames are moving to a 4-4-1 protection model, which is dumb for a player like Stone, or they risk being penalized by the league for trying to sign Stone after the expansion league.

I don't mind the Flames going to a 4-4-1 model, but I only support it if it's for a legit top 4 defenseman like Barrie or someone who makes losing a guy like Frolik worth it.
