OK, I take back that dismissive, condescending note. I don't want to be seen as a troll, when I'm only communicating my actual opinions

If you compiled a list of the 2nd best player on every team in the NHL, Mark Stone would fall near, or at, the bottom of that list

That's my point

Mark Stone is developing into an elite, two-way 1RW in this league. Last year he posted .81ppg and I expect that to rise again this year. In comparison, Corey Perry posted .75ppg last year. Ovechkin was at .89ppg. That's pretty good I'd say.

Big thing to me is his defensive play. If the guy was a center, I'd predict he'd be a Selke nominee in few years (could still be, but I think it tends to go to centers over wingers).

To go along with his excellent producton he also led the league BY A MILE in takeaways last year. If he was a center he'd likely have won the selke and for sure would have been a nominee.

I'm not trolling. Proof - I have the Habs second. Believe me, I do NOT like the Habs...

This is my honest opinion, and it's shared by many in the hockey world

And to the other guy - I get that you're high on your own prospects. But the key is looking at them relative to other teams. Comparatively, your prospects are weak

Pretty sure the majority of people in the hockey world expect the Sens to be a bubble team... and probably continue to be so for the foreseeable future

17 freaken points in 7 games ,iam not the only one that,s high on him .Add in a PPG freshman in White and we have some great prospects coming.You need to actually look at what we have before you claim we have nothing

1) Tampa Bay (by far)
2) Mtl (Only if Price still healthy)
3) Ottawa (Yes! Believe Ott fans)

**********out of playoffs***********
4) Boston ... Core group still great.
5) Florida (Damn injuries... If not, would be #3, maybe #2)
6) Detroit
7) Toronto
8) Buffalo (injuries again... )
