Ok now we really need to stay away from 2nd in the Pacific...Stone makes them a scary playoff team.

So, ask yourself: Valimaki for years to come, or Mark Stone tightening up our cap even more?

We still have to re-sign Tkachuk, so I think it was a good move for the Flames to not give up on an ELC defender that already plays like an NHLer.
It's Okay we got the Real Deal he's better then stone.

Erik Brannstrom is their Valimaki. Glad we didn't pay that price in that case.

Vegas needed an elite forward pretty bad, he was a much more valuable piece to them, not surprising to see it.

Not only do we not get Stone, but we have him in our division.

Having to overpay for a Stone extension would have messed up the team in the long run.

While it always sucks to see a rival land a big fish, I have a sense of relief that we have kept our assets.

This will be very valuable at the draft and at next year's trade deadline.

Not to mention we are still better than Vegas - this trade doesn't suddenly make them 16 points better.

Depends on the contract.



If the contract is good, I think giving up Valimaki would be fine.

If they could have given up Valimaki and NOT give up a first... man, Treliving, what the hell, man.

How does Duchene get two firsts and Stone gets ZERO?

I would have gladly given up more than that for an extension-signing Stone.
Unless he signs for over 9.3 million per year.
