Stone (undisclosed) scored a goal on two shots in 13:47 of ice time in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Stone's second-period marker finished off a smooth passing play from Evgenii Dadonov, and the goal stood as the game-winner. With the Golden Knights comfortably ahead, head coach Pete DeBoer didn't push Stone too hard in his first game back from a four-game absence. Fantasy managers shouldn't hesitate to activate Stone, as he's racked up seven tallies, 17 assists, 41 shots on net and a plus-11 rating in just 20 appearances this season.

Stone was activated from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game versus the Rangers, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
While Stone was officially designated a game-time decision by head coach Pete DeBoer, the winger's activation from IR is a good indication he'll play in Thursday's contest. The 29-year-old will likely return to a top-six role with power-play time, barring a late scratch.

Stone (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stone appears to be dealing with a lingering issue and it's unclear when the team expects him to return. He was placed on injured reserve retroactive to Dec. 21, therefore he'll be eligible to return once he's healthy. The 29-year-old winger has 23 points in 19 games this season.

Stone (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision versus the Kings on Tuesday, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stone has seemingly been dealing with a nagging injury, as he was forced to miss the third period against the Lightning on Dec. 21 despite racking up two goals in that contest. On the year, the 29-year-old winger has racked up 23 points in 19 appearances and should be a lock for a first-line role when healthy.

Stone scored twice in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Lightning, but he was removed from the game in the second period after aggravating an undisclosed injury, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Per Granger's report, head coach Pete DeBoer believes Stone's injury is related to the one that kept him out of the lineup Sunday versus the Islanders. DeBoer also alluded to keeping Stone out of the third period Tuesday to avoid further injury giving the upcoming holiday break. It remains concerning that Stone can't shake this particular ailment. The 29-year-old winger has managed six goals, 17 assists and 39 shots on net through 19 appearances this season. For now, he can be considered day-to-day ahead of Monday's scheduled game versus the Avalanche.
