Flames' Michael Stone: Traded to Calgary

Stone was dealt from the Coyotes to the Flames on Monday for a third-round pick and a conditional fifth-round pick in 2018, Bob McKenzie of TSN reports.

Analysis:

Stone was expected to serve as a healthy scratch for the Coyotes on Monday to avoid injury, but will instead pack his things and head out of town. After a breakout season of sorts in 2015-16 (36 points in 75 games), the 26-year-old defenseman's offensive production has scaled back just a year later. Through 45 games this season, Stone has notched just nine points, including five on the power play. He'll look to revitalize his campaign following a change of scenery and joins a team that records decent production from the blue line.
