Absolute stud. Enjoy Vegas.

 

[Hale The Villain]

Best forward that has ever played for this hockey team.

Yes, better than Alfie, Heatley and Spezza.

Unpopular opinion I know.

 

[NyQuil]

One of my three jerseys is dedicated to Mr. Mark Stone.

Most well-rounded forward in Sens history.

 

[Deku]

I bet he will win a Selke at some point.

Yes, better than Alfie, Heatley and Spezza.

I think the world of Stone but with no disrespect to him he's not close to Alfredsson and even with Spezza and Heatley you could have a pretty robust debate about offensive skill vs all around skill.

 

[Clayonator]

Thanks for everything Stoner. Your best is yet to come.

 

[NyQuil]

Most well-rounded forward in Sens history.

Best forward that has ever played for this hockey team.

Unpopular opinion I know.

Whaaaaat. Alfredsson was better defensively and offensively.

I think it's a legitimate debate if nothing else. Alfredsson probably had a higher peak, but I think Stone's had more consistency to date.

Alfredsson beat Stone's career high in points 10 times.

HE WAS A RFA. Pierre is so bad at his job, I never wished someone in my life to collect EI, but Dorion fits it.

 

[RAFI BOMB]

Great player and very sad to see him go. No competent general manager or owner would ever let a player like him go. But unfortunately we don't have that in Ottawa. It is tough to lose Stone and I can understand why he would want out. This is just another example of how bad things are in Ottawa. Hopefully Stone continues to light it up in Vegas.

Sucks that the past 2 years he's started to really hit an elite level, wish we could have won with him here. Loved watching the passion in his game, glad he'll get a chance to go to a winning team. Good luck to Stone, all the best, thanks for the memories.

 

[dumbdick]

My favourite sen. All the best stoner

 

[Gil Gunderson]

That Pittsburgh game in 2015...

 

[saskytaxi]

Too many good players gone too soon. Should have been a sen for life.

 

[coladin]

He even looked like the damn senturion. My only jersey. Don't blame him at all, and funnily enough, look forward to watching him in Vegas. With EK, I somehow don't give two shits, and can't explain why. Same with Duchene, want him to win. I just felt that their hearts were in the right place.

This hurts a lot.

 

[supsens]

Whaaaaat. Alfredsson was better defensively and offensively.

And Hossa

 

[Relapsing]

One of the best players this team has ever developed.

Watching him play and grow was an absolute pleasure

 

[Raze The Stray]

Hell of a player. At the end of the day though he's a player, we're a team.

 

[Cloud]

I still remember Mark playing in the world juniors, and at the time, not realizing he was a Sens prospect....was tickled pink when I found out we had him already drafted. Knew he was going to be special even then and he didn't disappoint. Easily one of my all time favorite Senators...should have been captain...sad day.

 

[robsenz]

You can tell he hasn't been happy in Ottawa for a while now. Curious to see how his game translates elsewhere. But my god is our team horrible...reminds me of the 2003 Pens, but worse.
