But surely a Stone that was in and out of the lineup all season after getting beat out could get moved for a 6th with $1M retained.
All academic now anyway.

look at Trevor Daley.
Last year of his deal making 3.1, modified NTC.
Even on an absolutely terrible Detroit defense, last year he was #7, within nipping distance of two guys 23 and 20 years of age (sound familiar).
Detroit is one of the worst teams in the league and they wouldn't do a straight swap of stone for daley.
Stone is on Kris Russell levels of being an NHL player unfortunately. That's a tough friggin market to crack.
