Stone is bigger, and in many ways just as effective, if not marginally Moreso.
He’s a band-aid though.
In any event - we don’t need a championship blue line next year.

Hanifin plays tougher and better D than Stone. Stone can't clear the net, can't pass out of the zone and loses a ton of board battles. For all his size, he doesn't hit much, or well. Hanifin isn't rough but he uses his wingspan well and funnels to the boards. He has big looking errors but more often than not it's because he plays against elite forwards.
