Stephenson scored a goal and added two hits in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Stephenson's third-period goal was little more than consolation in response to six straight tallies from the Kings. The 27-year-old has three points, three shots on net and a plus-2 rating through two contests. A troubling sign for Stephenson's production was the departure of Mark Stone with an apparent lower-body injury in the second period. Should Stone miss time, Stephenson's scoring potential would likely take a sizable hit.
