Mark Stone posts three points in Golden Knights rout of Penguins

Fantasy hockey: Stone had a goal and two assists Saturday, but his production matches his recent averages and his value was already priced in.

Mark Stone posted one goal and two assists on one shot in 14:49 against Pittsburgh on Saturday, October 17, lifting the Golden Knights to a 6-2 win. His power-play goal was part of a plus-2 evening.

The three-point night is impressive on its face, but Stone averages 1.13 points per game in his recent sample. For a player already producing at that rate, this game represents a normal showing rather than a meaningful shift in value.

Stone's recent averages sit at 0.41 goals, 0.73 assists and 2.0 shots per game across 175 games, with 0.41 power-play points a night. He logs 18:57 a game overall and 3:26 on the first power-play unit, where he ranks second among all Golden Knights skaters. His underlying play grades 75 out of 100 among forwards, a measure of shots, scoring chances and ice time that speaks to how sustainable his scoring is.

Vegas plays twice more this week, on Tuesday and Thursday, then three times next week. Stone's 14:49 on Saturday came in well below his typical workload, though that can happen in a blowout. He remains a weekly starter in all formats, but this performance does not change his outlook: he was already a hold before Saturday and remains one after it.

What to do

• Keep Stone in lineups for his remaining two games this week on Tuesday and Thursday.

• Treat this as a normal outing for a player who averages 1.13 points per game, not a breakout.

• His 75 process grade and first-unit power-play role (3:26 a night) support his production.
