Sens CHL Prospects from HF

NEELY wrote:Ev is right when he says Stone isn't a steal, he isn't even close to being in The NHL at this point. Was it a good draft pick in the 6th round? One that clearly was scouted out by The Sens? A pick that has the potential to be along the lines of a Chris Neil type? Yes it was.

It's a player to watch and perhaps get excited about and it could end up being a steal but relax a little. The Murray's tend to go after guys who were supposed to be higher draft picks but get injured and have their season's shortened, that's what Stone was. We'll see if he gets a WJC tryout next year and makes the team... perhaps he could be next years Foligno.

That was my exact comparison before lol.

It was definitely a very nice pick for the 6th round.

i'm sad we only have 4 CHL prospects to be honest.

Did you compare Stone's potential to Chris Neil? I'm tired so I may be misconstruing what you wrote.

I said before that he will be a Chris Neil type player if he ever makes the NHL. A 3rd liner who hits and fights, doesn't skate too well. Chris Neil used to score in junior too.

Neil's best was a 26 goal, 72 point campaign. I don't think they're quite in the same class. Stone put up 37/106 this year.

Braydenn Schenn played 2 games in Brandon this year lol. And Glennie and Stone are not even on the same line from what the Brandon fans have told...
Stone is the team's MVP and he's got a ridiculous goal scoring ability. If you guys see Chris NEil in this video, I'd like to know what you guys are smoking
To me he's more like an Alex Burrows with worse skating.

Arron Asham was a ridiculous goal scorer in junior as well. Now he's a 3rd line role player.

Also, in the playoffs, i.e crunch time, Stone scored 3 goals in 33 games.

Ya, and he had 10 pts (1/9) in 6 games in the playoffs this year. You like to use your stats strategically, eh?
