Stone has quietly had a pretty good season.
I'm not going to ignore what's coming, and that's a very good NHL defenseman in Rasmus Anderson, but it's hasn't been a slam dunk to date.
To date Stone has been the third best blueliner on the team in what he gives up in shot attempts per 60 minutes behind the top pairing. Andersson is last.
I love me some Rasmus Andersson though, and I do think it's inevitable that they move Stone out and bring in a cheaper utility defender to sit in the press box as a Andersson fill in.
But you don't need to be a Stone apologist to give the man some credit.
