Stone is on a whole other level to Duchene or any players traded so far this year and would not be a pure rental on NYI as they have the space to keep him.
I agree that Stone is significantly better, but break down what they actually got in return for Duchene. They basically upgraded a bottom-6 prospect in Bergman for a middle-6 prospect in Abramov, so a slight upgrade there. Then they got Davidsson who is still a big question mark as to what he will actually pan out to be, a middle to late first round pick, and another conditional 1st. You basically got:
-Swapped for a slightly improved prospect
-A middle of the road prospect
-A late first round pick
-A 50/50 shot at another first
I think Stone will bring in:
-2 Solid prospects
-A Late First
-A 3rd pick that becomes a 1st if Stone resigns
I would call that a much better return than what Duchene got.
