Beyond that, though, Stewart is one of the toughest players in the league and has a heaaaavy shot.
Unfortunately he's slower than Brouwer and can rarely get to spots to use his shot, takes undisciplined penalties, and makes Nail Yakupov look like a Selke candidate...I can't even describe how poor he is defensively.

Hope he comes in hyped up and delivers solid two-way play and depth for the Flames down the stretch. Great dude.

Brouwer is supposedly a very popular guy in the room. I don't know why you are suggesting otherwise.
