The gap between No. 1 and No. 2 in Silver Seven’s Top 25 Under 25 this year is quite wide. That’s nothing against Jean-Gabriel Pageau and the rest of the group; the Senators prospect pool and group of young NHLers hasn’t looked this good in three or four years.
Mark Stone is just that good.
At the ripe age of 24, Stone has already led the Senators’ forwards in points during his first two full seasons in the NHL.
After the 2014-15 campaign saw so many things come together from January to April for the team, last year was a completely different story.
