It would save $950 less his roster replacement. Either an ELC or Holzer ($700K). So, no real savings.
At this point, Stoner needs no roster replacement because they're already accounted for on the cap list.

Yep, going to be more costly to get rid of waived Stoner than what some Anaheim fans have been thinking here.
That contract right now looks very bad and Anaheim needs cap space, so no one is making any favours.
Stoner + Montour for a mid-round pick is a deal that I'd love as a Canes fan. He would be a significant upgrade to Ryan Murphy this year and moving forward.

If the Devils are taking Stoner, Fowler is coming with him.
To NJ:
Clayton Stoner
Cam Fowler
To Anaheim:
Jon Merrill
2017 2nd round pick
2018 4th round pick
Hah, no way. Stoner isn't bad enough to drop Fowler's value that much.
Then good luck signing Lindholm/Rakell.

Haha like we have to do that deal or that's set in stone lol

My 2 cents is a prospect like Montour and a 3rd may be enough to get a team to bite on taking a guy like Stoner.
Not sure what list you're referring to. But when the season starts the cap is based on a 23 man roster plus previous buyouts/retention and guys buried in the A over $950. The 23 man roster will then include somebody else who wouldn't have been on it before.
Bieksa won't waive for a trade, he wants to keep his family in Anaheim. Bernier is not being traded, he was acquired for a reason.
Yeah, Tornonto needed to move him as part of the Anderson trade.
No, the Ducks wanted a goalie with starting experience to supplement Gibson.
So Anaheim has obvious salary problems, what would it take for a team with cash to take on Stoner's 2 year at 3,25M or Bieksa's 2 years at 4M. (Note: Bieksa needs to waive his NMC I believe but he could waive for a playoff team like Florida)
Bernier could also be a trading option since he makes 4,15M for 1 year.
Yeah, it's based on a 23 man roster plus all those things mentioned but your assumption that it will then include somebody else who wouldn't have been on it before is a false one. The Ducks already have six guys on their roster and on their cap list before they sign Lindholm on their blue line meaning that they don't have to bring up a replacement. And practically everyone that discusses the Ducks situation includes these people already so there isn't going to need to be a replacement for Stoner due to them waiving him and potentially assigning him to San Diego.
Anaheim is known for stupid deals, at least lately.
Stoner's and Bieksa's deals, letting Palmieri go for a 2nd, low-balling Rakell and Lindholm, signing BOLL, letting Perron go for nothing, trading away Maroon for almost nothing, giving Heatley a contract etc.
Just stupid all around.
Wonder what the next deal is, can't wait.
I don't see how. Regardless of all the Ducks D that get discussed, somebody will start the season in SD (Theo?, Montour?, Holzer?) if Stoner is in ANA. If Stoner gets assigned to SD, one of those three will most likely make the team when they otherwise wouldn't have.
People have been discussing many of the Ducks young D but at the end of the day, the 23 man roster will contain 23 players and one will either be Stoner or his replacement. Sending Stoner to SD will be offset on the roster, even if ends up being one less D and one more F. The size of the roster will not expand or contract based on Stoner's location.
Now it's up to Montour AND a 3rd?
