By AP nullLAS VEGAS (AP) — Vegas Golden Knights captain Mark Stone returned Thursday night after a five-game absence that landed him on injured reserve.
Stone returned against Pittsburgh, the same team he suffered an upper-body injury against March 1 after absorbing a check from Kris Letang.
Stone returned to his top-line spot at right wing with center Jack Eichel and left wing Ivan Barbashev.
The Knights were 1-4 without Stone, and fell to third place in the Pacific Division, behind first-place Anaheim and Edmonton.
Stone has 21 goals and 39 assists in 43 games this season.
