Bringing back two Hitmen in Stone and Alzner would be pretty cool and would really solidify the defence.
I think getting both Stone and Alzner would be nice if the Flames can get both guys for under $4M (each). The team should then be in a position to allow a Kulak, or Anderson male the team and ply a regular shift.

Ideally both Alzner and Stone are good number 5's. Combining both of them with Calgarys top 3 makes a pretty formidable blueline
