No further details were provided regarding the status of Stone. However, one can speculate that he may be landing on LTIR for the Golden Knights to activate Jack Eichel.

This will be the 19th game in which Stone has missed this season due to various injuries, and also COVID-19 protocols. Stone and fellow linemate Max Pacioretty missed significant parts of the early season for the Golden Knights. Stone missed twelve games with a lower-body injury.

Stone has eight goals, 20 assists, and 28 points in 28 games this season.

With Stone out, Nolan Patrick or Michael Amadio will likely get into the lineup.
