Stone (undisclosed) was held out of the third period of Saturday's 4-0 win as a precaution, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stone was injured in the second period, but Granger reports that head coach Pete DeBoer didn't want the star winger to push it. DeBoer added the "level of concern is small right now" in regards to Stone's status. Fantasy managers will want to check in ahead of Monday's game in Minnesota, but it seems like any absence for Stone will be a short one at the most. The 28-year-old has six goals and 27 points in 21 outings as part the leading scorer in Vegas' dynamic offense.

Stone (undisclosed) went to the locker room during Saturday's game versus the Sharks, David Schoen of the Las Vegas Review Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear what forced the Golden Knights' captain to leave the bench. Stone opened the scoring in the first period of Saturday's contest. If Stone doesn't return to the game, an update should be available in head coach Pete DeBoer's postgame comments.

Stone provided a pair of assists in Friday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Stone remained hot with his third straight multi-point outing. He assisted on Chandler Stephenson's goal in the first period and Max Pacioretty's game-winner in overtime. Stone has accumulated five goals, 21 assists, a plus-13 rating and 32 shots on net in 20 outings. He's excelled as the set-up man for Pacioretty as the two dynamic wingers mesh well on the Golden Knights' top line.

Stone dished out five assists and was plus-3 in Monday's 5-4 overtime win versus Minnesota.
EDGE Analysis
What a night for Stone, who had the primary assist on every Vegas goal in a rousing comeback victory. He set up power-play strikes by Cody Glass and Max Pacioretty in the second period, even-strength tallies in the third by Nicolas Hague and Alex Tuch to force overtime, then punctuated his night with a perfect feed on Pacioretty's winner in the extra session. Stone had been sputtering offensively coming into the night, notching just a goal and an assist over his previous seven games, but his massive performance Monday gave him 22 points (18 assists) in 18 contests on the year.

Stone recorded an assist in Monday's 3-0 win over the Avalanche.
EDGE Analysis
Stone entered Monday on a three-game point drought, which may have been part of the reason head coach Pete DeBoer shuffled his lines. Stone's assist came on Alex Tuch's second goal of the game, showing a little chemistry between the new linemates. Despite the recent dry spell, the 28-year-old Stone has 17 points through 16 outings. He's added 28 shots on net, a plus-7 rating and 13 PIM.

Stone notched an assist in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Stone set up Chandler Stephenson's first goal of the game at 11:37 of the first period, giving Vegas a 3-2 lead. The 28-year-old Stone is up to three goals and 11 assists through nine games this season. He also has 19 shots on net and a plus-7 rating. He's only maintained a point-per-game pace once in his career (62 points in 58 games in 2017-18) but there's little reason to think the Manitoba native will cool off anytime soon.

Stone scored a goal on three shots and dished an assist in Friday's 5-2 win over the Kings.
EDGE Analysis
Stone was involved on the first two goals, with a secondary assist on Nicolas Hague's first-minute tally before doubling the lead himself at 9:32 of the first period. A 10-day layoff between games due to a COVID-19 outbreak among Vegas' coaching staff didn't seem to do Stone's performance any harm. The 28-year-old winger is up to three goals, 10 assists, a plus-8 rating and 18 shots on net through eight contests. He's been held off the scoresheet only once this season.
