Yes, any lineup with stone in it not an improvement on the current one. Hamonic will completely neuter Brodie’s dynamic puck moving and hanifin-stone is going to spend every shift getting pummelled.
Kylington makes mistakes but also knows how to gap, stick check, and pass. Hanifin gets walked by 3rd liners every game, has no idea how to defend, and plays with the composure of a pee wee player. Yet he led in ice time through 2 periods and has a guaranteed spot. I’ve never seen a player get by on his draft status as much as hanifin. If the flames treated Bennett the same way he’d be centering the second line and getting pp time instead of being used as a 4th line winger. And Bennett has shown much more than hanifin.
