I don’t know what positive that Stone brought tonight that Prout wouldn’t have. Just because Stone makes 3 times more money doesn’t mean that he is 3 times better than Prout. With the top 4 the Flames have and a stud rookie like Valimaki, they can take a minor downgrade from Stone to Prout if it means keeping your core players safe.
The correct answer is score on the power play.
If the Flames open the scoring on that man advantage, my guess is that fight never happens.
