Oh I agree there is no harm in trying and Darryl has to work with what he has on the roster. Brad has built a beer league roster and Stone's skillset is interchangeable with most of Sutter's options on the backend. So when you don't have a lot of options to pick from because it is an area of organizational weakness, you go with the horses you got. So I am fine with Stone being in.
Sometimes I wonder if we would have even found a gem like Stone without the Arizona connection. That is one reason why I think they may look at Botterill to be the new GM. He may know of some hidden gems like Stone from his old job that most of the league would not be looking at.
