Stone will be out for a while after suffering an upper-body injury Tuesday versus the Predators, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Stone had avoided significant absences this season, but he'll now miss some time. General manager Kelly McCrimmon did not specify how long Stone will be out, but it's probably safe to assume he'll be unavailable for the rest of the week and perhaps longer with the Golden Knights set to begin a road trip Saturday in Ottawa. The team may need to recall a forward to have a full complement of players Thursday versus the Maple Leafs.

Stone (upper body) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Predators, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear when Stone sustained the injury, but the announcement came early in the third period. The oft-injured winger has stayed pretty healthy this season, racking up 53 points over 56 appearances. If he misses any time, the Golden Knights would likely need to make a roster move for an extra forward or play with seven defensemen.

Stone logged an assist in Monday's 4-0 win over the Sharks.
EDGE Analysis
Stone has gotten on the scoresheet in four of the last five games, posting a goal and three assists in that span. He's gone a month without a power-play point, his last coming Jan. 18 versus the Rangers. The 31-year-old winger is still one of the Golden Knights' most important forwards. He's been good in 2023-24, racking up 53 points, 116 shots on net and a plus-1 rating over 55 appearances.

Stone scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 5-3 loss to the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
Stone scored for the first time since his hat trick Jan. 15 versus the Predators. During the eight-game goal drought, the winger still posted seven assists to remain productive. Stone is up to 52 points, 113 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 53 appearances, and he remains the focal point of the Golden Knights' offense with Jack Eichel (knee) on the mend.

Stone (illness) is not at practice Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
A bug may be spreading in the Vegas dressing room, as Zach Whitecloud and Jonas Rondbjerg also didn't participate in Saturday's session due to illness. The good news is that the Golden Knights don't play again until Monday when they are home to Minnesota. Stone has 15 goals and 51 points in 52 games this season, including 14 points on the power play.

Stone produced an assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Coyotes.
EDGE Analysis
Stone set up Chandler Stephenson's first-period tally, which stood as the game-winner. While he's gone eight games without a goal, Stone has made up for it with seven assists and 16 shots on net in that span. The winger continues to hover around a point-per-game pace with 15 goals, 36 helpers, 110 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through 52 appearances.

Stone logged an assist, two shots on goal and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Stone helped out on William Karlsson's empty-netter late in the third period. The 31-year-old Stone entered the All-Star break on a three-game point drought, so it's encouraging to see him snap the skid right away following the time off. The winger is up to 50 points, 107 shots on net, 35 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through 51 outings this season as one of Vegas' most consistent forwards.

EDGE Analysis
Stone finished with a plus-1 rating and three shots on goal, as he extended his point streak to six games. He has managed three goals and 10 points with a plus-7 rating during that impressive run, including three multi-point efforts. He'll look to add to his totals as the road trip continues Tuesday night at UBS Arena against the Islanders.

Stone notched an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Stone has three goals and five assists during his active five-game point streak. He's been held off the scoresheet just twice in January and only four times since the start of December. The 31-year-old winger is up to 15 goals, 32 helpers, 96 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 46 appearances. Stone will continue to carry a large share of the Golden Knights' offense as the team deals with a handful of injuries.
