Mark Stone Placed on IR with Upper-Body Injury

Vegas captain Mark Stone is on injured reserve with an upper-body injury sustained against Pittsburgh. While he has missed three consecutive games and will sit out Sunday's match against Edmonton, GM Kelly McCrimmon stated the team is comfortable with the situation and does not anticipate a lengthy absence. Stone is receiving treatment at City National Arena. The 33-year-old has been productive this season, despite previously missing 16 games due to a broken finger in October.
