The games I saw him in he looked okay, would like to see him more regularly in the lineup.

He wasn’t injured. He did get delayed entering Canada. I believe those were visa and quarantine issues. He ended up missing most of training camp because of it. As a result he was not even considered for a top 6 role out of the gate. He had a few stints on the 3rd pair, but Ward was not a fan. By the time Sutter gave him a chance Stone already solidified himself a spot, and Valimaki and Nesterov were fighting for the 6th D.
