Mark Stone Returns to Golden Knights Lineup After Five-Game Absence

Vegas captain Mark Stone returned to the lineup Thursday against Pittsburgh after missing five games with an upper-body injury sustained March 1. Activated from injured reserve, Stone immediately resumed his top-line role alongside Jack Eichel and Ivan Barbashev, contributing to a 6-2 victory. The veteran forward has been a key contributor this season, recording 21 goals and 39 assists in 43 games, providing a significant boost to the Golden Knights' Pacific Division playoff push.
