I think Stone will get a long look with Brodie but maybe not right away. If he plays tomorrow I see him with Bartkowski as both players are still learning the system obviously.
I always thought Stone was a more realistic offseason target than Alzner due to cost of contract. Flames will get to test drive Stone for 23 games and hopefully the playoffs and they will know if he is worth keeping or not. Rather give up the one pick then give Stone a long term deal and have it be a dud. Also if it works out well I have no problem giving up both picks
