I don't agree. Hamonic lets Brodie play his game better because he's better at defending than Stone.
I would also argue that Brodie being off the best start of his career, there's probably not that much room for him to improve by switching defensive partners.

This is a major reason why I think the team has problems defending. Especially if the opposing team forechecks deep, turnovers are going to be inevitable and very dangerous without the forwards supporting.
