I think you answered your own question. The Avs need to add to their D core. At the same time, he missed a big chunk of time this year with a broken leg so he's still re-adjusting. If we didn't like Stone's bounce back from injury, I doubt we'll take to Johnson's.
Another name I'll throw out there is Mike Green. He's 31 but RD, plus the Wings have expansion protection issues. He has 1 year left on his deal. We could extend him or potentially use him on a short-term basis until we could roll Wood, DeAngelo, Murphy down the right side.
