LAS VEGAS — Vegas Golden Knights<\/a> captain Mark Stone<\/a> has been placed on injured reserve with an apparent wrist injury.<\/p>\n Following the team’s morning skate Monday, coach Bruce Cassidy said Stone would be week-to-week. But per the team’s roster page on the NHL’s media site, Stone is now on IR.<\/p>\n Stone, 33, was injured in the third period of the Golden Knights’ 6-1 win over Calgary on Saturday. He has 13 points (two goals, 11 assists) this season, two points behind teammate and NHL leader Jack Eichel<\/a>, who has 15 points. Eight of Stone’s points have come on Vegas’ power play, which ranks second in the league.<\/p>\n “I feel for him,” Cassidy said. “He’s always bounced back well, that’s the good news, when we do get him back. Whether that’s the short, medium, or long term — we don’t know yet.”<\/p>\n Editor’s Picks<\/p>\n 2 Related<\/p>\n Cassidy said Brandon Saad<\/a> will shift to the top line in place of Stone, joining Eichel and Ivan Barbashev<\/a>, who will move to right wing.<\/p>\n Mitch Marner<\/a> will step in for Stone at the goal line on the power play, while defenseman Shea Theodore<\/a> will move to the top unit.<\/p>\n The Knights (4-0-2) head into their toughest test of the young season Monday, at home against the undefeated Carolina Hurricanes<\/a> (5-0-0), short-handed with their forward lines and at the blue line.<\/p>\n Stone joins forward Brett Howden<\/a> and defenseman Noah Hanifin<\/a>, who are both out.<\/p>\n Howden, sidelined with a lower-body injury, has resumed skating but won’t be available against the Hurricanes. Hanifin hasn’t resumed skating since Vegas’ 6-5 shootout loss to Los Angeles in the season opener because of an undisclosed injury.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Oct 20, 2025, 05:10 PM ET LAS VEGAS — Vegas Golden Knights captain Mark Stone has been placed…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":240278,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[66],"tags":[385,99],"class_list":["post-240277","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/240277","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=240277"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/240277\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/240278"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=240277"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=240277"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=240277"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
