Stone logged two assists and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
Stone helped out on Chandler Stephenson's opening goal and Jack Eichel's empty-netter. While he was limited to 38 points and 43 games last season, Stone returned to produce 24 points in 22 playoff outings. Keeping the 31-year-old winger healthy will be key for Vegas' defense of their Stanley Cup Championship -- he's played just 80 games over the last two campaigns combined due to a pair of back surgeries. For now, it appears head coach Bruce Cassidy is content to have Stone and Eichel on separate lines, providing balance to the Golden Knights' top six.

Stone notched two assists, three blocked shots and two hits in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Panthers in Game 4.
EDGE Analysis
Stone had a hand in both of Chandler Stephenson's tallies in the game. While he was quiet for much of the Western Conference Finals, Stone has emerged again for two goals and four assists through four games in the Stanley Cup Finals. The 31-year-old winger is up to 21 points, 46 shots on net, 25 hits, 15 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 21 playoff contests. He is one of three Vegas forwards, along with Jonathan Marchessault and Jack Eichel, to be at a point-per-game pace or better in the postseason.

Stone scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Panthers in Game 3.
EDGE Analysis
Stone has gotten on the scoresheet in all three games of the Stanley Cup Finals with two goals and two assists. These were his first power-play points since a helper in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals. The winger has eight tallies, 11 helpers, 46 shots on net, 23 hits and a plus-2 rating through 20 playoff contests. He remains on the third line at even strength, but he gets plenty of playing time in all situations.

Stone scored a goal on seven shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Panthers in Game 1.
EDGE Analysis
Stone picked off a pass and went the other way for the Golden Knights' fourth tally. He was held off the scoresheet in his previous four appearances, so it's good to see him get going early in the Stanley Cup Finals. The captain has racked up seven goals, 16 points, 40 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 18 playoff outings.

Stone scored a power-play goal and added an assist at even strength in Sunday's 3-2 overtime Game 2 victory over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Stone hasn't been flashy and has only one multi-goal game this postseason, but he's gotten on the scoresheet consistently. The winger has been held without a point in just four of 13 playoff games, racking up six goals and 15 points. He isn't putting up four-goal games like Leon Draisaitl was, but Stone's providing consistent value for managers.

Stone notched an assist, three hits and two PIM in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 2.
EDGE Analysis
Stone set up an Ivan Barbashev tally in the third period. The helper gave Stone four goals and seven assists through seven playoff contests, and he's on an active six-game point streak. The winger should continue to see important minutes in all situations as the Golden Knights look to bounce back in Edmonton on Monday for Game 3.

Stone scored a goal, added two assists and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Jets in Game 5.
EDGE Analysis
Stone's goal was the game-winner, and he also set up both of Chandler Stephenson's tallies. With three goals and five assists over five first-round contests, Stone looks to be in peak form despite missing the last three months of the regular season. He'll look to continue being an impactful scorer in the second round.
