I don't know how you justify moving Brodie playing 24 minutes a night at 4.9 while keeping Mike Stone at 0 minutes a night at 3.5. But then you're talking about trading for his brother and then moving him once his brother arrives. That's...weird.

So then you move Brodie to make space for the Stone brothers...that's a weird Freddie Hamilton situation.

In my mind the best option is to try to move Mike Stone to ottawa as they are likely one of the few teams in the league with any value attached to Mike Stone right now.
I am 90% convinced that Brodie is going to be traded in the off season. He is going to be up for a big raise after next season and I don't see him fitting into the long term pay structure of the team.

He is a fine player, but mistake prone and a little overrated IMO because he plays with Gio. The team can sell high on him in the off season and re-load with some assets that can be flipped to find cheaper options for filling in the gaps on the roster.
