Golden Knights’ Mark Stone nears return from wrist injury

The captain is close to a return.

He appeared on the second line alongside Mitch Marner and Brett Howden during Wednesday’s morning skate.

Stone, 33, has not played since Oct. 18 due to a wrist injury, missing the Golden Knights’ last 17 games.

The Winnipeg native had been off to a hot start to the season before his absence, recording 13 points (two goals and 11 assists) in six games.

Stone suited up for Canada at the 4 Nations Face-Off this past February and is among the candidates to make the team for the 2026 Olympics in Italy.
