Stone - long term
Hi everyone,
What are your thoughts on how likely Stone can have a full recovery? I have an opportunity to acquire him (I'm not going to pay much) but for next year and beyond is he a keeper? When healthy he's great but he's never played a full season and barely played the past two.
Acquisition cost aside, I'd have to drop Werenski or a rookie like Holtz/Jarvis in order to keep Stone. I'm leaning towards it not being worth it, but wanted people's opinions on how likely he can get back to his potential. I have my doubts.
Thanks in advance!
