Stone (lower body) practiced in a non-contact sweater Monday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stone has been on injured reserve since Nov. 19, but his return to practice is encouraging, even though he was wearing a non-contact sweater. He'll presumably need to increase his workload during practice before he's in the mix to return to game action, but he appears to be trending in the right direction. Head coach Bruce Cassidy ruled Stone out for Tuesday's game against Edmonton, and while he didn't rule the 32-year-old out beyond that, Cassidy said that Stone's return timetable will depend on how quickly he progresses to full-contact work.

Stone (lower body) was designated for injured reserve Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Stone is still being classified by the team as day-to-day and has already missed more than a week of action, so he could still technically be activated ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Toronto. Still, it seems unlikely the team would place him on IR only to reactivate him Wednesday, so he should probably be considered doubtful for both ends of Vegas' back-to-back against the Leafs and Senators on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively.

Stone scored an empty-net goal on two shots and went plus-3 in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Stone helped secure the win with his goal five seconds before the final horn. The tally kept his point streak alive at seven games (four goals, eight assists). Stone is up to six goals, 21 points, 26 shots on net, seven blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 13 appearances this season. This scoring pace is well above Stone's usual level, but he's been a large part of the Golden Knights' success over the first month of 2024-25.
