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

I'd suggest he's a top 4 four guy under normal circumstances. He pretty consistently played against the opposition's top players in Washington. I think the biggest knock on him, from reading up online, is he had surgery for a sports hernia and never fully recovered this season.

So that's certainly a bit of a red flag, but I'm one to believe that it's a bit of a blessing in disguise as a rough season coming off injury may allow for the Flames to nab both Stone and Alzner for lower than expected value.
