Can't Hold Leads
Have any other retired players presented in the past couple years? Did they present to players from their team?
This was one of the greatest HF threads of all time.
i think so. although maybe we get a quick comment about him hoping Stone wins itAlfie is presenting the Calder because HE won it, not necessarily because Stone did.
Doesn't change anything re: who won the award, IMO

with alfredsson saying "if stone doesn't win the calder i will give him mine", i doubt alfie would accept the invitation if he didn't know he would be presenting it to stone.
For him to present it to someone else after releasing those comment would be something else, that's for sure.
I honestly think it points all signs to stone winnning.
Meh, i think we are looking way too much into it.
He did win the Calder before, so that is probably the reason why he is presenting it.
Thinking that this points to Stone winning is just wishful thinking imo.

I honestly think the NHL wouldn't ask him if it wasn't stone. They'd wait until there was a year with no senators player in it. Most likely next year. They would not make him got out and NOT announce the sens player the same season he officially retired an Ottawa Senator. Especially with him publicly stating he strongly believes stone should win the award. The NHL is pretty classy and that would be asking for an awkward situation.
I don't think its reading too much into it, i just think its fairly obvious/predictable.
Totally off topic, but this is my all time favourite.
