Stephenson (COVID-19 protocols) rejoined his teammates for Monday's practice session, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

With Stephenson clearing the league's COVID-19 protocols, he immediately jumped back into the first-line center role. In 43 games this year, the 27-year-old center has tallied 12 goals on 63 shots along with a career-best 26 helpers. Even with Stephenson's strong start to the year, he will almost certainly get bumped from the first line as soon as Jack Eichel (neck) is cleared to play.
