The 30-year-old forward has been sidelined for 39 games after reaggravating a back injury that led to surgery earlier this year.He missed 26 games last season due to the same injury, which also required surgery in May 2022. Despite initially attempting to rehab the injury, he sought a second opinion from Dr. Chad Prusmack. Prusmack performed teammate Jack Eichel's disk replacement surgery on his neck in November 2021. Stone said,"I think I had a successful surgery the first time, Unfortunately, it came back, so I had to try to do something different. Right from the start, I felt good. It took away a lot of my pain and symptoms days after the surgery."His return is a much-needed boost for the Golden Knights. In 43 games this season, he has tallied 38 points (17 goals, 21 assists).
