Stone (wrist) was placed on long-term injured reserve Thursday, per PuckPedia.
Stone was injured Oct. 18, and the move to long-term injured reserve gives the Golden Knights extra cap space. Stone was off to a great start with two goals and 11 assists in only six games, and he is still tied for second in NHL scoring, three points behind teammate Jack Eichel.

Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Heads to IR
Rotowire
Stone (wrist) was put on injured reserve Monday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Stone was deemed week-to-week earlier Monday, and his placement on IR will now free up a roster spot for the Golden Knights. The right-shot winger sustained a wrist injury during Saturday's 6-1 win over the Flames, and he shouldn't be expected to return to the lineup anytime soon. Tanner Laczynski, Raphael Lavoie and Jonas Rondbjerg are candidates to be called up from AHL Henderson as a result of Stone being sidelined.

Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Considered week-to-week
Rotowire
Stone (undisclosed) is week-to-week, according to Jesse Granger of The Athletic on Monday.
After suffering an injury in Saturday's 6-1 win over Calgary, Stone didn't participate in Monday's morning skate and won't play against the Hurricanes. He also won't travel with the Golden Knights for the team's upcoming three-game road trip, which begins Saturday against Florida. Stone's lengthy injury history could make Vegas cautious with his recovery. He has amassed two goals, 13 points and 19 shots on net through six outings this season. Due to Stone's absence, Brandon Saad will move up to the top line against Carolina on Monday.

Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Exits late in win
Rotowire
Stone (undisclosed) left Saturday's game versus the Flames in the third period, and there was no update on his status from head coach Bruce Cassidy after the contest, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Stone was on fire prior to getting hurt in the third period. He had his first two goals of the season and two assists in the game, with three of those four points coming on the power play. Stone is up to 13 points and 19 shots on net through six outings this season. Given his injury history, the lack of an update on his status is at least moderately concerning. More information should come before Monday's game versus the Hurricanes, which is the Golden Knights' last one at home ahead of a three-game road trip that begins next Saturday.

Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Keeps up hot playmaking start
Rotowire
Stone logged three assists, including one on the power play and one while shorthanded, in Thursday's 6-5 win over the Bruins.
Stone remains on zero goals, having come up empty on 15 shots, but he's creating chances for his teammates with nine assists in five games. The 33-year-old did it in all situations, helping out on all three of the Golden Knights' tallies in the second period Thursday. Stone has shot at least 12.5 percent in each of the last six seasons, so his puck luck will turn around eventually, especially if he maintains a high shot volume.

Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Dishes two more helpers
Rotowire
Stone produced two assists, two hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Sharks.
Stone set up goals by Pavel Dorofeyev and Jack Eichel, both of which were equalizers. That's four helpers in two games to begin the year for Stone, with three of those assists coming on the power play. The 33-year-old winger continues to be a significant part of the Golden Knights' top six and first power-play unit. He's looking like more of a playmaker, which follows a trend from the last two years, but there's no arguing with his production so far in 2025-26.

Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Records two assists Wednesday
Rotowire
Stone registered two power-play assists, three shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Wednesday's 6-5 shootout loss to the Kings.
Stone won't be the top winger for Vegas anymore now that Mitch Marner is in town, but the former can still be quite effective in a middle-six role. The 33-year-old Stone put up 67 points in 66 regular-season outings in 2024-25, his highest total in both production and games played in his six full campaigns with the Golden Knights. For now, Stone is playing on the second line, though his spot on the first power-play unit should be enough to give his offense a boost as he tries to reach the 20-goal mark for the first time since 2020-21.
Stone (upper body) is fully healthy to begin training camp, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
Stone missed the end of the Golden Knights' postseason run in 2024-25 due to an upper-body injury, but he recovered during the offseason and should be fully available heading into the 2025-26 regular season. The 33-year-old appeared in 66 regular-season games last season, his highest mark since the 2018-19 campaign. He logged 19 goals, 48 assists, 42 blocked shots and 32 hits while averaging 19:15 of ice time, and he should maintain a top-six role during the 2025-26 season.
Stone (undisclosed) won't play Wednesday in Game 5 versus the Oilers, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
The Golden Knights will face elimination without their captain, as Stone continues to be bothered by a lingering injury. He was also a game-time decision for Game 4 but was able to play in that contest. He'll need his teammates to dig deep for a win Wednesday, though it's unclear if Stone will be available should the Golden Knights force Game 6, which would be Friday in Edmonton.

Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Doubtful for Game 5
Rotowire
Stone (undisclosed) is doubtful for Game 5 against Edmonton on Wednesday, per SinBin.vegas.
Stone was questionable for Game 4 on Monday, but he ended up logging 21:42 of ice time in that 3-0 loss to the Oilers. It's not clear if what will potentially keep him out of Wednesday's clash is the same injury or a new problem. Stone has four goals and eight points in 10 playoff appearances this year. If he can't play, then Cole Schwindt will likely draw into the lineup for the first time in the 2025 postseason.

Golden Knights' Mark Stone: Available for Game 4 in Edmonton
Rotowire
Stone (upper body) will play in Game 4 against the Oilers on Monday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Stone was nicked up in Saturday's 4-3 win in Game 3, but he won't miss any time after being deemed a game-time decision Monday. The right-shot winger will fill his usual first-line role in addition to linking up with No. 1 power-play unit. Stone has generated two goals and two helpers in this second-round series versus Edmonton.

Rotowire
Stone (upper body) will be a game-time call for Game 4 versus Edmonton on Monday, Jesse Granger of The Athletic reports.
Stone logged only 5:54 of playing time in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

Stone has accounted for four goals, eight points, 20 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and nine hits across nine appearances this postseason. If Stone and Brandon Saad (lower body) are unavailable for Monday's matchup, Cole Schwindt or Alexander Holtz could be in the lineup versus Edmonton.
